Check to see if he or she understands how the mouse operates. Be sure to show your child if he or she is having difficulty. • If your child is unfamiliar with using a computer mouse, it may be helpful if you place your hand on top of your child's hand and help guide your child during the first few times he or she uses the mouse. • Allow your child lots of practice with this activity. In time, your child should be able to manipulate the mouse quite easily. Remember, this skill takes practice and patience! 39
