Handwriting practice and normal reading are foundational skills for children aged 5-6 that play a crucial role in their overall development and academic success. At this age, children are in a critical period for developing fine motor skills, which are vital for efficient handwriting. Structured handwriting practice helps them learn to form letters correctly, which is essential not just for legible writing but also for cognitive development and brain activation related to reading and learning.

Reading at this stage is equally important as it exposes children to new vocabulary, enhances their comprehension skills, and fosters a love for learning. Reading to children or encouraging them to read on their own nurtures imagination, expands their understanding of the world, and sets the foundation for later academic achievements.

Together, handwriting practice and reading lay the groundwork for literacy. Handwriting aids in reinforcing letter recognition and reading fluency, making it easier for children to decode textual information. Regular practice encourages discipline and attention to detail, which can translate into better performance in their academic and personal lives.

Ultimately, caring about handwriting practice and regular reading paves the way for a child's future success in school and beyond by building essential skills that are interconnected and crucial for both literacy and cognitive development.
