Cursive Handwriting & Calligraphy for ages 6–12
Handwriting still counts in Indian schools, and in every handwritten board exam. This workshop teaches cursive the way that works: letter families that share a stroke, then joins, then speed without losing neatness. The last session moves to calligraphy with the kit's chisel-tip pens, ending in a piece worth framing.
Neat joined-up writing, and a calligraphy piece ready to frame
How 5 sessions get there
Each session is 45 minutes, live, and builds on the last. Your child is doing something for most of it.
How to hold the pen without strain, then c, a, d, g, o and q, which all start the same way.
The loop family (l, b, h, k, f) and the hump family (n, m, r).
The four kinds of join, practised in common words. Capitals that connect.
Copy a passage at speed while keeping slant and size steady. Before and after samples are compared.
The chisel-tip pen at a steady angle, the italic alphabet, and the final framed piece.
What's in the Calligraphy Kit
Everything your child needs for the sessions arrives in one box before session 1, and all of it is theirs to keep.

- Three chisel-tip calligraphy pens
- Calligraphy guide-line pad

Live with a coach, hands on the kit
Here is session 2. The coach shows one idea, the children try it straight away with the kit, and they hold their work up to the camera for feedback.
