Extra Thick Massager Pencil Grips the Writing Pen Store

What are Pencil Grips?

Pencil Grips are small impermanent attachments that fit onto a pencil. They help a child or adult have a functional and accurate grasp of a pencil. Used correctly, a Pencil Grip can help develop fine motor skills and user control over their handwriting.  Traditionally Pencil Grips are made with foam, silicone or moulded rubber. The pencil grip has helped reform the writing ability of countless children and adults, both able bodied and those with disabilities.

Why so many?

Well, in truth, because we are all different and each requires different tools to help us flourish. Some require a grip to aid the positioning of the fingers, others to guide the amount of force to be applied when writing. Some people simply need a grip to make writing more comfortable and reduce fatigue.  We also have to consider the application – is the Pencil Grip intended for use at home for homework or recreational activities? For the classroom? Or something more hard-wearing for use in exams? Condition also plays a huge part in the selection of a Pencil Grip, whether it is to aid with fine motor skills, arthritic conditions or those requiring sensory feedback.

Whatever the reason, whether it be for pens, crayons or even paintbrushes, at Sensory Direct we have the grip for you!
