My daughter is really into writing letters. She wants to write all by herself and told me that I could just say each letter and then she would be able to write her own thank yous. Well… I worried that process might take a very LONG time so I came up with this…
I found this great font called Quicksand. It can be downloaded for free here.
I printed two thank yous on a page. On the inside she dictated what she wanted to say and I printed the cards again with the messages on the inside and then cut the cards in half and folded.
She was busy and felt so good!
Here is a round-up of printable thank yous from around the web.
Hi Cindy! great idea. I went to the link and created an account but now I can’t find how to download the font. Can you help?
What an awesome idea!!
This is such a great idea! I had found a Web site that creates handwriting practice sheets for my son but it was frustrating to format the pages correctly. So this font is perfect, and I didn’t even think of using it for thank you notes
Ooh, I love this idea! It would be great for my independent Kindergartner.
Thank you so much for sharing this! Perfect!
So cute! I use fonts like Quicksand also to make books for my preschooler. I scan her pictures that she has drawn and type the words below that she dictates then print and “bind.”
I LIKE it. My kids always need to work on handwriting and doing it in a Thank You is even better. I posted my appliques. Thanks
I love this idea! It would have been great for when my daughter was younger and wanted to write her own letters… dictating DID take forever! I’ll have to file this away for when my other two are learning! 🙂
OMG- I adore these!!!!!!
I can;t wait to start using that font- it is SO perfect for these AND for teaching my daughter to write her name!
THANKS
Lembro-me disso na minha infância. Eram desenhos que podiam ser cortados. Ajuda muito a coordenação motora. Muito Legal!!!
What a great idea!
That is a GREAT Idea!!!!!! DS7 is getting better with his handwriting but this would be a great help. I will be using this for both him and his little sister. I use that font to print out things for him to practice his handwriting, but never thought to use it like this.
super! That’s why I come to your site! You find (and do) the greatest things! Thank you
