This digital handwriting activity is designed to help children master when to lift the pen while writing and how to write letters with the correct proportions. It encourages children to develop their skills in both cursive and manuscript writing, with many fonts available for practice.
In this fun, engaging exercise, the “potion master” writes a word first, with the ink color changing automatically each time the pen is lifted. The child then copies the word in the space provided, using the color changes as visual cues to check whether they’ve lifted the pen at the correct time or not!
As they write, both the potion master and the child create “potions” by blending the colors used in each segment. The potion grows as each correct stroke is made, and the more the child’s potion resembles the master’s, the more points the child receives. This activity reinforces essential handwriting skills such as stroke separation, proportion control, and sequence awareness.
Through engaging visuals and interactive feedback, children develop fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination, making learning both fun and effective.
