Improving Hand writing Tips For Kids

 SS Misri
A good handwriting is an asset for a child. Every school going child spends up to 50% of his day on writing.  This means that if you find writing difficult or if what you write is messy, you might be at a disadvantage. There are some tips for such students to help them improve.
A comfortable grip zone can help a child to improve handwriting skills.
Just as learning to play a piano or ride a bike, handwriting takes practice.


Some key things to learn are:
Practice often, but for small amounts of time.
Start with simple tasks like birthday cards and signing artwork.
Train the fingers to be more flexible with other activities such as cutting and tearing paper, coloring large surfaces with finger paints, stringing beads, kneading or modeling clay.
  
To be as neat as you can
To write as quickly as possible but still making sure what you write is legible.
The child should take care with size and spacing of letters.
The type of pen or pencil used while writing can have a real impact on the work.
Hold your pen using the forceful tripod grip nature has given to you i.e. holding the pen with the thumb, index finger and middle finger. This will help you control the movement of the pen by applying the correct amount of force, speed and accuracy.
Don’t hold pen too tightly as this can lead to pain.
