I bought this cursive writing board for my four-year-old daughter who has just started school. She isn't keen on sitting down and practising writing, so I was looking for inspiration! This is fantastic- she loves feeling like a teacher with her special pen and white board, has sat and practised a lot, and has used the plain flip side to write words. The pens have a sponge at the bottom to rub out, which is really good. Only one critism- the 'f' and 'z' aren't as they learn them at school. But that aside, I would thoroughly recommend this product.
