What is the Handwriting Club?
Handwriting is a complex task requiring a child to coordinate vision, hearing and fine motor skills to produce legible written work. Small group, multi-sensory classes encourage the acquisition of handwriting skills through the use of arts, crafts and movement activities. Wolfson Children's Rehabilitation's Handwriting Club is led by a registered pediatric occupational therapist with expertise in the development of growing hands.
