Description
Kids will love pulling out their set of cards (with a marker/eraser inside) and practicing their handwriting. Why? Well, novelty for one. It's something different than writing on paper. Each set has 40 laminated cards and even the box is well-designed. Cards are 4.5x6.5" with rounded corners. The printing set has a colorful box with an animal theme. Inside, the cards are all double-sided with a whimsical illustration one side and traceable letters on the other (individual letters plus short words like zoo, web, sun, man, dog, bee, etc.) The colors are bright and cheery. The cursive set is less juvenile. The cards are in shades of white & ivory with elegant black letters and words to practice. The style is traditional (meaning the capital Q looks like 2.) You see the solid letter/word, then a dotted version to trace, then space to try it yourself. Dotted half-lines help know where to start and stop. 5/8" with 4 practice lines per side. Contained sets like these are great for centers or individuals waiting for their turn with Mom or Dad.
