Children and teachers enjoy success with Handwriting Without Tears® because the program makes handwriting easy and fun to learn. This simple, developmentally based curriculum teaches children of all abilities, making handwriting an automatic, natural skill.
We understand that teachers’ school days are busy and that many have not been trained to teach handwriting. That’s why we designed our curriculum to be flexible and easily incorporated into other classroom activities. Our program can be taught in as few as 10 minutes a day.
