I’ve been using these + the teacher guide and needed accessories to tutor a former student of mine. He went from barely having a grasp on his letters to “That’s easy!” In just 2 months, with 2 classes per week. The reason this program works so well is that it’s not just a workbook, it’s a game for them, and kids learn through play! I love HWT and recommend it to anyone that will listen!

Really like this book! We were struggling with getting my daughter to hold her writing utensil correctly when I heard about this program. I like that it makes it fun without putting pressure on her. Since we got this book I have definitely noticed an improvement with her handwriting and fine motor skills since we have started to use this.

When l taught we used this program for kids that needed extra help. It is a good program for all kids to boost their skills.

I am currently home schooling my first grader and though my daughter wanted to join us she was often left out and frustrated with our challenging curriculum. I bought this book for my 4 year old daughter so she could do "school" too and it's a perfect combination of fun school work that will teach her the basics before she reaches kindergarten. We are enjoying it each day together!

This is a great "school" book for my 4 yo who has done casual handwriting and coloring previously, but wanted to have his own work while I homeschool his older sister. I didn't buy the teachers guide but the descriptive table of contents tells me enough about what the objective is that I can give him directions for each page to practice a certain skill.

We home school and my 3 year old daughter often feels left out when they are doing school work. This workbook is lots of fun and can be used beyond the printed instruction. After she completed all of the exercises, we had her practice counting the shapes and letters, and then color in all of the animals, or draw background scenes or add decorative patterns to the objects on the page. She felt all grown up with her own fun assignments. In spite of the title, my twin 6 year old boys shed lots of tears when doing handwriting (it has nothing to do with the content) jumping in at level 2. Hopefully starting my daughter with the first book will help.

Best handwriting aid on the market. As a mom of seven I have tried numerous curriculums and this is the best!

Excellent book. My daughter had it in preschool and loved it. It has so many great things that keep the kids wanting to learn. I bought this copy for my son who just started preschool so he could have it at home.

This is a good project book for little kids learning how to hold a pencil. We also incorporated crayons and even careful water color paints. This gave my young child confidence to use a pencil to make shapes, numbers and letters at a beginner level. This is a good #1 book for pre k or k depending on your child's developmental skills. Kinder kids would go through this much quicker than pre k, but the next level book, I think, was just a little too advanced for my kindergartener who hasn't had much experience in drawing letter characters. This helped her tremendously.

Such a great first school book! Teaches all capital letters, and colors. Also focuses on pencil positioning and individual strokes. You basically only need the guide for the first 3-4 pages, so we skipped it, and just had her “scribble” on each star, firefly, firework, etc. My 4yo daughter enjoyed using this as a Pre-K book, and doing handwriting. She felt “big” like her big sister, who was using the more advanced book by this publisher!
