Looking for an iPad app to help my child with handwriting
I know, it seems backwards to use a computer to teach handwriting, but the 6yo needs handwriting/fine motor work, and using the iPad is motivating for him. Any suggestions?

Re: Looking for an iPad app to help my child with handwriting
Are they advanced enough for a 1st grader? He knows how to form letters, It's just slow and they're illegible.

Re: Looking for an iPad app to help my child with handwriting
I highly recommend Cursive Wizard. It's $4.99, I believe, but SO worth it. There may be a printing one, I don't know, but PJ started using it in kindergarten and loved it.
