Wrist strength + stability = better handwriting control ✏️

Try these 5 simple, play-based activities:

• Vertical surface activities → encourages natural wrist extension for better pencil control
• High plank holds → builds wrist stability along with arm and core strength
• Play-Doh presses → strengthens the wrist while practicing a neutral position
• Balloon taps → targets wrist extensors in a fun, dynamic way
• Functional play (coloring, puzzles, crafts) → reinforces wrist stability during handwriting tasks

Stronger wrists = improved control, endurance, and smoother writing 🙌
