Hi! We’re Claire & Lauren! Welcome to The Inspired Treehouse!

Free ways to turn games into handwriting practice


Handwriting practice doesn’t have to mean worksheets and drills.

We’re sharing a couple of free handwriting resources that help you bring writing practice into games kids already love — including 10 board games you can easily turn into handwriting activities and a practical handwriting tips handout to guide your choices along the way.

And if you want a done-for-you handwriting reference you can rely on throughout the year, our Handwriting Book brings strategies, visuals, and clinical reasoning together in one place.

The freebies are a great start — and the book will be your steady, go-to resource you’ll keep reaching for when handwriting is part of the plan.
