Kids learn traditional Chinese calligraphy (CNTV) |
Usually children learn calligraphy starting with the basic strokes. However, since the muscles of their fingers are not strong enough, it is really difficult for them to use a brush proficiently. It is a great challenge for small kids.
Ms. Ouyang, a calligraphy teacher, says that besides weak finger muscles, helping kids calm down and concentrate can be a problem.
Ms. Ouyang, Calligraphy Teacher, said, "Every child's fingers are different, but after some practice, most children can hold a brush pen skillfully. The biggest problem is how to help them calm down and sit still for several hours."
