Children should be in first grade or above. If it is too early to practice calligraphy in kindergarten, it will affect the child's skeletal development.
Children in first grade should practice basic strokes and simple words:
1. Pay attention to the correct way to hold the pen. Use your thumb, index finger, and middle finger to hold the pen without any pressure on each other. The ring finger and little finger serve as support. The angle between the pen and the paper is about 45 degrees.
2. Choose a copybook with slightly larger characters. Children's observation ability is poor, and larger characters are easier to read and copy.
3. When writing simpler Chinese characters, learn and practice according to the copybook, paying attention to the length and angle of the strokes.
4. It is best to use Tianzi grid and rice grid exercise books, which are easy to observe and place the strokes.
Another suggestion: It is best to practice calligraphy with brush. The calligraphy with brush is relatively large, and it is easy to observe the frame structure and stroke shape. It is the best way to fundamentally solve the problem of practicing Chinese calligraphy. It is very helpful for character development and has many benefits.
1. Choose copybook: Choose one of Yan, Liu, Ou, and Chu styles.
2. Writing method: It is best to find a professional teacher to teach you the five-stroke writing method.
