Father in his wisdom has brought home a calligraphy set for bear. It was only £1.99 from The Works and father thought that he would see if bear liked it before buying bear a calligraphy set for Christmas.
Bear is nearly seven. At school he still has to write with pencil. They aren't even teaching them script yet. And that ink had better be washable or I will be having Words.
Despite all this, bear is actually doing okay with his writing. To me it still looks like it was written during an earthquake by someone who had heard of writing and seen a YouTube video, but it is slightly better than his writing in pencil. I think because he takes a bit more time when he has a pen.
We are still holding on to the helicopter bought a few years ago suitable for aged 14 and over. There is a scaletrix thingy in the walk in cupboard that was bought when bear was still crawling and which I hope is okay. Father has form. But bear is enjoying his writing so perhaps he has got it right this time.
