Handwriting: Ages 5-7 (Collins Easy Learning KS1)

Very happy with the book, my daughter loves practicing to write which is great, helps her to improve her hand writing

The book is colourful and attractive. The letters are big enough. But 450 Rs for 32 pages is a bit too much. It's good for practising cursive but it's not proper cursive script.

Poor in content, a tiny book, if we compare price and content it's not worth 5 euros.Not satisfied at all, I'll never buy again books from Collins!

Will going to purchase some more books in the future.

I got this book for my 7 year old for extra handwriting practice. It is pitched at the right level for him and he is happy to complete it (with a little DS bribery). I am not sure if a 5 year old could manage it unless they are a handwriting genius but maybe my standards are low, who knows? It starts with a recap of individual letters and then starts going through each join such as ‘in’ etc, it then gets you to practice each join with some simple words. Like bin, jam etc. It then does capitals, days of the week and numbers to 20. Finally colours. It gets you to trace then copy. I like the book as its colourful and has nice words that aren’t really small. This isn’t continuous cursive so if your school is doing that you may want a different book but its joined up writing as I was taught in the 80s and so I think it works well.
