Handwriting Helps

Do you have a struggling handwriter?  

Or are you looking for free or frugal resources to teach handwriting to your kids?

Below are my easy-to-use articles on handwriting, full of fun activities to help your child with handwriting.

These activities can be a real help for your struggling handwriter, too.  Each of these activities can give them a break from their regular handwriting workbook, while building foundational skills for handwriting.

From teaching the ABC's to helping kids who struggle with holding their pencil and getting those words onto the page.  I am a former OT in my pre-homeschooling days.
