Handwriting Without Tears @ CFD

Monday, November 7, 2011 by Courtney Stanley

We have many specialized programs here at Child and Family Development.  One of the programs is called Handwriting Without Tears®.

This program presents handwriting in a developmental, multisensory manner and has proven to be successful for a variety of children.  Handwriting Without Tears® was developed by an occupational therapist by the name of Jan Olsen.  It helps children learn to write in print and cursive and is appropriate for grades Pre-K through 5th grade.  Using wooden pieces for building letters, magnadoodles and chalkboards, play doh, and music, children learn how to form letters in a fun and educational way.  

Handwriting is such an important means of communication and should not be a tearful experience for any child.  If your child is struggling with handwriting, this program could help them succeed.
