This booklet provides parents with interesting activities to encourage and improve their children's writing abilities—and help them do better in school. A simple, step-by-step method for organizing ideas and writing nearly anything is included. Activities of interest to children of all ages are also suggested including transcribing tape-recorded interviews children make, a game of making drawings from instructions someone else has written, keeping a daily journal, recording and analyzing sports results, corresponding with a pen pal or another child with similar interests, and more!
