Educational SNS makes communication between teachers and parents efficient, but gives an inorganic impression compared to the communication using handwritten characters that were done in the communication notebook. Handwriting shows the personality of the writer, and reminiscent of the writer. In this study, we developed a communication system between teachers and parents that uses handwriting animation to express the user's presence. This system analyzes the input speech using the speech recognition engine Julius, and converts the voice into a drawing animation of handwriting and displays it. In addition, we implemented the drawing representation of three types of characters that change depending on the voice speed.
