Handwriting Day

National Handwriting Day is January 23, 2024
When we study our schoolhouse documents of the past we are in awe of the beautiful and flowing scripts exhibited in their handwriting and wish we could duplicate those efforts. Do you  bemoan the loss of penmanship skills? Have your local schools abandoned the practice of cursive writing?

National Handwriting Day was established to raise awareness of the many benefits of handwriting, a.k.a. cursive writing and may even succeed in returning this skill to the classroom. The many upsides of handwriting have been published in countless articles and books, but one infographic can state the case very clearly and visually.

Pens.com has invited their patrons to share this infographic with readers who might be interested in those bullet points. Sounds reasonable to me!

Note: This infographic is longer than usual, but keep scrolling down.
