Most of these handwriting activities will work for students learning manuscript or cursive. These no paper activities are fun for active boys and girls of all ages! Kids love to get physical while they are learning, so let’s dive into a list of handwriting practice ideas that don’t rely on sitting still for success. It’s not only fun, but it can also help with fine motor skills and creativity. One way you can encourage your little one during school is by breaking out of the traditional pencil-and-paper handwriting routine.

Then brainstorm ways you can pass a love of learning on to your child! No Paper Handwriting Practice Ideas To find the best way to help your child learn is to consider your little one, their age, their developmental stage, personality, interests, strengths and struggles. We get to stop forcing workbooks and embrace a better option for each child developmentally. Homeschooling breaks the mold and sets the expectation for students to work at their own pace so that they can be successful. Maybe we’re expecting too much too soon for our young learners. I’m not referring to wild, out-of-control behavioral issues that need to be addressed situation-by-situation, I’m simply talking about meeting our active little ones where they are and encouraging them to love learning through methods that work well for them. If you’re worried that they aren’t doing “what they are supposed to do”, you can breathe a sigh of relief because a strong case of the wiggles is completely normal. Preschoolers and younger elementary school aged kids are more than likely going to be more active during school lessons and enjoy doing things that are as PHYSICAL as possible!
