Handwriting for Kids

There is a sense of quality of life as you begin to see your handwriting take the form of something beautiful.

Handwriting for Kids

Keep the focus on learning.

For early learners, literacy and language development are foundations of readiness, and research suggests that handwriting is a key component. Learning to write letters and form words are powerful first steps toward academic success.

With the Getty-Dubay Italic Handwriting Series, kids learn one alphabet and join the letters naturally for cursive.

These samples are written by hand. Green lines highlight joins between letters in Cursive Italic.

For middle school students, fluent handwriting means more language arts success, and better preparation for high school. Learn more about the Italic Handwriting Series.
