National Handwriting Day
-- The Writing Instrument Manufacturers Association started this holiday in 1977 to acknowledge the history and influence of penmanship. Its reason for growing more urgent each year as pens, pencils, and paper lose ground to the QWERTY keyboard. When the hand-written letter, note or document is fast becoming a thing of the past, the art of elegant (or even legible) handwriting may well be under threat. National Handwriting Day encourages you to put pen to paper and to practice your handwriting. Hand-write a letter to someone you love who lives far away and sign it with a big signature.
Read: Your Handwriting Can Change Your Life!
-- When we purposefully change our handwriting, we introduce attitudes which can improve our relationships, give us the impetus to achieve and take risks, and simply bring out the best in us. This is because our handwriting is a reflection of our innermost thoughts and feelings. When we fall in love, survive a serious illness, or change careers, our view of life is dramatically altered and, as a result, our handwriting patterns change. Included is an enlightening assessment test identifying those personality traits requiring attention. Your Handwriting Can Change Your Life profoundly reveals the key to making dreams come true is as simple as putting pen to paper.
Spencerian Penmanship
-- In the mid-1800s, the Spencerian form of penmanship became a standard. Elegant handwriting was much prized. Today, in our computer age, a fine, beautiful, and legible handwriting brings a warm personal touch to our correspondence. These books, five copybooks, and a theory book may be used to introduce cursive writing to second or third graders or to improve the handwriting of older students or adults.
Pen Grips for Adults and Kids
-- These pencil grips are designed to assist individuals of all ages, including children, adults, and the elderly, in learning the proper way to hold and write with a pencil. They can be used by both left-handed and right-handed individuals and are compatible with various writing and drawing tools such as pencils, pens, crayons, and markers. By ergonomically positioning the hand, these grips can help prevent finger cocooning, improve grip, and reduce pain, fatigue, and discomfort while writing. They are particularly beneficial for kids who are just learning to write and need assistance in correctly holding their pencils.
