Wipe Clean Workbook: Cursive Handwriting: Ages 5-7; wipe-clean with pen (Wipe Clean Learning Books)

My oldest got into trying to write in cursive . There are very few books that keep the grey to trace .

I bought this as a gift for a 7 year old. She was excited to receive it and began practicing on the spot. It's a very nice book with wipe clean pages. It comes with an erasable pen, but I followed the advice of other reviewers and replaced it with Expo Erasable Markers.Cursive Handwriting is a 'rite of passage' toward adulthood for children. I think we've seen enough of "The Deliberate Dumbing Down of America" (Amazon carries multiple books on this subject) to realize this is not working out for us. Education needs to be more than focusing on standardized test scores.As for the contents of the book, the letters are not all formed the way most people were taught decades ago based on the standard cursive alphabet displayed in grade schools. For example, on lower case letters such as a, c, g, o--this book shows an upward beginning stroke from the baseline vs starting at the rounded portion. Lower case r & s do not have the sharp peak at the top of the initial upward stroke. Many upper case letters lack the beginning loops and/or beginning strokes taught in the past.That being said, it's a very 'clean' version of cursive and will get the job done. Kids will be able to learn cursive and thus be able to read documents, letters, sign their signature and such.

Great beginning cursive book

Love it for my grandson

Nicely laid out, good practice pages. A great tool if you are teaching your child to write in cursive. Great price, sound purchase. Buy it...you won't regret it.

Great buy! I homeschool and tbh cursive is not my priority. But my 8 year old is essentially teaching herself to write in cursive from this book. The 5 year old ALSO wants her turn with it too. I am such a fan of dry erase books for handwriting. My kids never liked official writing paper to practice handwriting. But dry erase is fun, and reuseable!

Daughter loves it

So great to be able to teach kids cursive since it is no longer in their school
