Pencil Grips - 3 Types
Pencil Grips: standard, cross-over or pinch grip | For left and right handers.
Speed, legibility and endurance of handwriting are influenced by the way a child holds their pencil. Pencil grips help the child maintain a position of stability to allow for efficient mobility and improved handwriting. The BIG advantage of our pencil grips is children like the feel of them as they are large, soft and moulded to fit your fingers β unlike the hard triangle types and the smaller types. The ergonomic design also provides relief of hand fatigue and pain. #1 Grip recommended by therapists to help kids write.
The Standard Grip is the original ergonomic writing aid and it continues to set the standard. It is simplistic in design but highly effective.
The Crossover Grip uses the same great design as the Standard Grip but with added wings to prevent fingers from crossing over each other.
The Pinch Grip balances the structure of the Crossover Grip with the freedom of the Standard Grip. Gently encourages fingers and hand to rest in the proper position. It's a transitional that bridges the gap between the Crossover and Standard Grips.
The Grips can be used as a three step process starting with Crossover, then Pinch Grip and finally Standard.
