Meet the Mark Makers!
The Mark Makers is a unique early writing programme for under 5’s. Lionel the soldier, Archie the rainbow, Swirlo the magic pot and Ziggy the monster focus on the main ‘marks’ that make up all letters, numbers, shapes and patterns. The Mark Makers educational resources range currently includes four story books for each character, an activity book, worksheets (like our Get Home Safe Worksheet) and much more. The programme is also used in every single one of our award winning messy play and mark making classes.
Mark making is a huge part of your child’s learning journey. When your child starts to make scribbles, patterns and shapes, this is ‘mark making’. It is the first step towards writing. Your child explores, experiments and expresses themselves through the marks they make. They begin to assign meaning to their marks, which leads to creativity and exploration.
It is our view that the more fun children have mark making and developing their motor skills, the more prepared and confident they will be when it comes to writing at school. In our mark making programme, our four Mark Maker characters represent the four main marks that help to make up all letters, numbers, shapes and patterns: a straight line, curve, circle and a zig-zag.
