Take BIC’s Fight for Your Write pledge to save handwriting

BIC's Fight for Your Write pledge to save handwriting

Did you know that fluency in handwriting is a fundamental part of learning? A child thinks and writes at the same time. When we teach the children to write, they also learn to express themselves. I definitely expressed myself through handwriting growing up.

My girls love learning cursive and they practice a lot. They are always writing me notes and cards to share. I love this! They also draw pictures to go along with their creative writing.

My son is not so interested in handwriting. In fact, it was just a few weeks ago that I asked my son to sign something with his signature and he had no clue what I was talking about. I was stunned. My kid couldn't even sign something.
