Our take

Consider for adult-supported early formation practice

Breaking shapes into families and using rhymes gives several cues while children repeat basic movements.

Keep in mind: The app's safety and educational claims are not independent proof of handwriting outcomes or a substitute for individual teaching.

  • The app's safety and educational claims are not independent proof of handwriting outcomes or a substitute for individual teaching.
