When should children start writing in a diary or journal?

Benefits of Keeping a Journal

Encourage your grade-school child to keep a journal. This is excellent writing practice as well as a good outlet for venting feelings. Encourage your child to write about things that happen at home and school, about people (s)he likes or dislikes and why, things to remember or things the child wants to do. Especially encourage your child to write about personal feelings--pleasures as well as disappointments.
