hiya, DS1 is 9 (nearly 10). His handwriting is pretty awful, and I think he may have problems with fine motor skills - can anyone recommend things that might be fun (?!) to help him?
I'm considering getting 'Write from the Start' but it's £25, have got him pencil grips and triangular pencils and try to encourage him to form his letters correctly (he does o backwards, and often p and b are done 'loopy', rather than stalk and round, IYSWIM) and just generally it's all a bit scruffy. I feel all I do is nag about his blinking handwriting, but I know he finds it hard, and want to help him. Any ideas gratefully received.
DS1 isn't SEN, but I read on another thread on a similar topic in AIBU, that this was the place to come... hope that's ok.
TIA.
