My 3years 9 month old child uses alternate hands for various tasks. Example, he always brushes with right hand but eats with left hand using fork. But uses spoon with right hand. He draws clockwise circle with right and anticlockwise circle with left hand.  There are many more such instances and afficiency in both hands are same. He cannot yet write lines or draw on the notebook. Though we are consciously not insisting on using a particular hand or anything, there are schoolwork coming in, consisting of standing lines, sleeping lines, etc. 1. Which hand should I hold when I help him with school work? Since he hates writing/colouring with pencil/crayon. He doesn't cooperate much. His teacher has said to practice everyday bit by bit without forcing. 2. When can we expect a clear picture on his handedness? Might he be a mixed handed child?
