Frugal Handwriting practice

March 9th, 2006 at 01:57 pm

My son hates handwriting, he loves being creative, loves drawing, loves reading. But hates handwriting, mostly I go easy on him because I didn't write for years do to my dislike, not till we accuired a word proccessor and my hands grew did I 'write' for fun.

But I hit on an idea for some subtle weekly practice, the grocery list. Kid wants my to buy burger buns, he needs to help make the grocery list! Plus it will help with spelling, though many foods are 'weird' (sugar?)

    In our house, we "pushed" handwriting with a Christmas list.... I asked for the lists to be according to price, so there was some math too. The kids could list as many things as they wanted, (sure didn't mean they were going to get them), but there needed to be things on an under $5. page, and then we did increments up to $50......... But, a fun page was the over the top Wish List............ Amazing to see. I've kept most of these over the years too, in the kids files. Fancy sports cars, homes on islands, name it. It got to be pretty fun! No one knew they were writing!!!
