Customer Reviews

Good for small hands and old hands too
I bought these for my classroom, where there are some small hands writing, and some recent imigrants from "conflict" zones around the world. Some students find writing difficult, some find writing unfamiliar these pencils help to ease the students into the process of writing. And, at the end of a busy grade recording session, I find these pencils a bit more comfortable to the arthritic hands, so I secret a couple for myself. I find the triangular shape directs the fingers, young and old, to the most comfortable, least stressful grip of the pencil.

Too bulky for little hands
I had hoped to find a pencil built more like the triangle grippers. This pencil is bulky and the "edges" are too rounded to really force the proper grip and provide the ergo comfort for my 6-year-old's hand to keep it relaxed enough for a worksheet's worth of writing. They came unsharpened, so I had to sharpen one to test it on her. I'll see if Amazon will accept it as a return because I don't want to be stuck with 36 of these. My advice is to start with a smaller quantity before you leap.

Great Pencils!
It's nice to use these pencils with my Kindergarten kids. The triangular shape helps with the appropriate grip.
