So….hey there. Are you looking for a FUN handwriting program for your kiddo? Well, guess what? Today we are releasing a brand NEW handwriting program called, “Maze Writer.”
Maze Writer is a 26 week handwriting program that is filled with FUN activities and mazes….as well as handwriting practice for the entire alphabet. This program was especially designed for children who struggle or have little interest in other homeschool handwriting programs.
As a homeschooling mother of four, you can be sure that I have had my share of handwriting struggles….and I KNOW that not every child enjoys writing. Most children however, do enjoy mazes and activities so that is the thought process behind this new product. Reel them in with the mazes and then sneak in the handwriting practice. Mazes are also fantastic for building logic, reasoning, and small motor muscles needed for handwriting.
Best of all we’ve organized this program into a structured 4 day a week outline over 26 weeks. You simple print and place inside a binder and you are good to go!
Alphabet Formation Chart
There is simple instruction to help children with understanding formation of the uppercase and lowercase letter. Children can practice tracing the letters with different colors for each stroke.
Beginning Letter Maze
At the top of this activity page is a beginning letter shape maze to solve. A blank uppercase and lowercase letter is provided for children to roll out play dough, fill with stickers or stamp with bingo markers.
ASL Uppercase Maze
This activity page provides children with an uppercase letter maze to solve. The ASL hand sign for the letter is shown for children to practice forming the letter with their own hand. A row of uppercase handwriting practice is provided.
Beginning Letter Coloring Page
This activity page features a lowercase letter maze for children to solve, alongside a beginning letter coloring page. Lowercase lettering practice is provided across the bottom.
Uppercase Maze w/Blank Handwriting
This activity page features a large uppercase letter maze alongside blank spaces for children to practice their letters. This is a good opportunity to remind children to go slow as they form each letter.
Lowercase Maze w/Animal Trace
This activity page features a lowercase letter maze for children to solve as well as a beginning letter animal to trace. Lowercase letter practice is provided across the bottom in a dyslexia friendly font.
Letter Maze and Font Recognition
Children work their way through the maze by following the correct letter. Below is a variety of different letter and fonts for children to practice visual discrimination skills to find and circle the letter.
Letter Review Page
The final page for the week reviews the ASL hand sign and stroke order. Children solve the maze with a colored marker to reveal a hidden letter inside, then complete the handwriting practice at the bottom.
The Maze Writer program provides you with eight unique mazes & handwriting pages each week over 26 weeks. If you child is younger or an extremely reluctant writer (I have one too), you can have them complete a single page per day and stretch the program out over the entire year.
This brand new program is now available in our eStore:

You can even print mazes for your Tots and Preschoolers like this new set of ABC Maze and Clip Cards.
Everyone loves mazes! I know my kids would much rather do a maze then a worksheet, so that is why I designed these Alphabet Maze Worksheets. For each letter of the alphabet there is a beginning letter picture maze for children to complete. Once they finish the maze they can use pladough to form the right shapes to make the letters. Show children how to roll out the playdough and then arrange to cover the uppercase and lowercase letters. If you’d rather not use playdough, children can simply color in the letter instead.
Teaching children the alphabet is an important step in early education. With all of the songs, games, Aps and educational television shows it seems like these days children are learning their ABC’s at a much faster rate.
