Camp Write-a-Lot...Make Handwriting an Adventure!

It's not just pencils that get dull...Sometimes handwriting practice can get boring and routine. Spark some enthusiasm for writing practice by creating "Camp Write-a-Lot!" Here are some ideas for setting up a camping-themed writing center:

* Start with a tent and pretend campfire, of course! 
* Add stumps or small camp chairs for seating.
* Store writing items in coolers or tackle boxes.
* Provide small flashlights or binoculars for looking at letters.
* Offer small sticks or plastic bugs for tracing letters.
* Supply small rocks and ropes for letter formation.
* Celebrate hard work with smores and trail mix.
