NRS Healthcare Pen Grippers - Pack of 3

Product Information

Good crayon and pencil grips should be actively and regularly taught. Teach grip as soon as age 4 or whenever crayons are introduced. Grip becomes automatic or habitual with repetition. The older the child, the harder it is to change the pencil grip. Try to change grip if it hurts to write, or if the grip makes writing inefficient. Use physical devices only if demonstration and practice haven’t worked. Static tripod grasp: The pencil is held with the thumb, the index finger, and the long finger, but there is no movement of the fingertips during writing. Pencil grips are relatively inexpensive and can be found in many office supply stores for your child. Benefits Of A Pen Gripper

If you are having trouble gripping more traditional pens or you are not able to write legibly or control the pen’s movement, you may want to consider an ergonomic writing tool. Even not being able to write for a prolonged period of time without experiencing pain or fatigue could be a sign that you could benefit from a different writing implement, Dr. Bose says. And while stretching and hand strengthening exercises should be utilized as well, an appropriate writing tool can help make putting pen to paper a little easier.

Having this comfortable rubber hold can help reduce the pressure that your child is holding onto the pencil. DIY Rainbow Loom Pen Grips

Thick Plastazote Foam Tubing

This type of pencil grip allows children to push their thumb and index finger into the correct position without pushing too far. It is a comfortable pencil grip that allows children to know where to put their fingers without parents and teachers constantly reminding them. Being forced to use a lot of pressure to make a pen function can cause pain and discomfort when writing. But an ergonomically-designed writing tool really doesn’t require a lot of pressure on the paper to get the ink to run smoothly. Look for pens that use the weight of your hand while writing rather than those that require a tight-fisted grip. Dynamic tripod: The pencil is held in the tips of the thumb, index finger, and long finger, resting in the webspace. Writing is done by moving the fingertips.
