Fun Ways to Encourage Handwriting Practice

Write thank you notes for kind favors and gifts. Very young children can sign their name on a card.
For young children, make simple mailboxes for all members of the family and place them outside their bedrooms. Encourage family members to write notes to one another.
Give your child a journal and make a special time each day for taking time to reflect and write in their new journal.
Ask your child to help you make a list of items needed from the supermarket and let them do the writing!
If age permits, allow your child to take phone messages.
Ask your child to help you label photos from a family outing.
Write letters to grandparents or friends who are out of state.
