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.
