"The video finished at least 5 min ago and my writing averse kiddos are still writing! My daughter even asked for another sheet of paper! ... One stoked mum here! It is honestly so hard to get my kids to write.
My son wrote for another 20 min or so after complaining about his creative brain working. Amazing!"

What are Writing Warm-Ups for Kids​?

Writing Warm-Ups for Kids is a YouTube playlist by Penny designed especially to help kids bridge their fear of writing and dive in to have fun!
Short, informal and sometimes silly, these writing activities will help kids warm up their writing brains and learn to enjoy the writing experience. 

Checkout the full list of videos at the Writing Warm-Ups for Kids playlist.
