Learning to write is such a critical and fascinating skill. Even in this computer age, good penmanship is still key for future academic and professional success. Nobody wants the pain of ‘crab writing’ standing in the way of decoding valuable information.

The beauty of childhood is that they can learn things quickly and learn it well; so proper penmanship, before high school, is the goal.

The good news is that pencil and paper are not the only way or even the main way for a child to practice good handwriting skills.
