handwriting "aha!" moment

handwriting "aha!" moment

The solution to my 10 year old's handwriting woes was borrowed from the old school...a real quill pen, dipped in an ink well.

He asked (o.k., begged) for a quill pen and has used it diligently (and willingly!!!) each day to practice his handwriting. The result has been a noticeable improvement in his penmanship and an increased willingness to pick up a pen and write. Woohoo!

When a person wants to do something, he does a much better job of it. :-)
