What font does the child practice first?

The age of learning calligraphy should not be too young, and it is more appropriate for school-age children to learn calligraphy from the third grade. Because this age has adapted to school life, I have a deep understanding of words and can start learning. Students in kindergarten and primary school are weak in understanding, but if they are interested and can continue to study, it will not be too early to start studying at this time. According to the habit of writing, it is also a suitable time to start learning calligraphy at this time.

To sum up, it is more appropriate for children to learn calligraphy from the age of 5 to 8.

The first time a child learns calligraphy, it is mainly to cultivate his interest, satisfy his curiosity and let the child learn actively. Then teach them some basic calligraphy knowledge and skills, such as starting, lifting and collecting pens, using the center and the correct posture of writing. As for what kind of script to start with, there have been different opinions. Generally speaking, it is advocated to start with regular script, because regular script is consistent with the current text and easy to know and write. (Xing, Cao and Wei Bei think it is not suitable for children to learn), and many calligraphers advocate starting with seal script on the grounds that the brushwork of seal script is relatively simple and easy to master. In particular, seal script belongs to hieroglyphics, similar to painting, and can be used to practice the brushwork of calligraphy lines. At the same time, because "they will feel different from the words they are familiar with, why do 100,000 words come out", it can arouse children's strong interest. While constantly explaining "why", we should teach them the basic knowledge of calligraphy in time, "satisfy children's curiosity", and gradually cultivate children's interest in calligraphy to achieve the expected goal.
