Handwriting

Handwriting has a highly reciprocal effect on reading. Encourage your child to hold her pencil in a way that allows her hand and fingers to move freely and easily when writing or drawing. General guidelines for a good pencil grip, as shown in figure 2, include: ◗ the pencil is held in a stable position between the thumb, index and middle fingers ◗ the ring and little fingers are bent and rest comfortably on the table ◗ the index finger and thumb form an open space ◗ the wrist is bent back slightly, and the forearm is resting on the table ◗ the pencil is held about 1–2 cm from the tip. You can be grips on Amazon.
