5 Ways Writing is good for Children (By an 8 year old)

Hi. I'm Sarah's youngest sister. I wanna be a writer when I grow up. Here are five ways I think writing is good for children.

1. Writing helps kids learn more words. They have to discover more words to say what they mean.
2. Starting young gives you more time to improve. If you start young and write your whole life, you will have had practice and will be better when your older.
3. It stretches their imagination. It gives their imagination more practice.
4. Writing is a good activity for kids to do when they're bored. It's good for their education and they can do it anytime. And it's better than a video game.
5. When kids share their ideas with their friends, it makes everyone happy. When other people find out someone's ideas, it makes them excited. 
Kids, I encourage you to write :)
