Learning to write is no easy feat! In fact, it's quite complex!

 

It requires tiny muscles in the hand to stabilize while other muscles move the fingers to produce letters. It requires the ability to sit upright, have proper shoulder stabilization, cross the body's midline, and grade our pressure on the paper. It requires adequate visual perception, visual memory, and visual motor integration.
