Dzidek, B., Bochereau, S., Johnson, S. A., Hayward, V., & Adams, M. J. (n.d.). Why pens have rubbery grips. NASA/ADS. Retrieved March 28, 2022, from https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2017PNAS..11410864D/abstract As an added bonus, this pen also can be used to improve strength and develop fine motor skills in kids. And, it is easily adaptable to both lefties and righties. That said, the pen’s longevity is not quite as lengthy as we might have hoped, especially if it is tossed in a bag or drawer until it is needed. Instead, try keeping this pen safe from banging around against other items to protect the integrity of its design and to lengthen its life. By the time the child is a year old, they are able to grasp and release objects with enhanced manipulation. 4 By age 2, skilled dissociation, fine motor manipulation and refined release become evident. 2,3,4 Between the ages of 2 and 3 years, in-hand manipulation starts to develop, the child can release small objects with precision into a small hole, and they can use a digital pronated grasp. Between the ages of 3 to 4 years, the child develops refined control and starts to use a static tripod grasp. Between 4 and 5 years of age, the child develops distal control and strength, allowing them to shift to a dynamic tripod grasp for coloring and writing. 2,3 As the child matures into the teenage years, finger strength and control improve to allow for further hand-eye coordination. Pencil grips can be used on any type of pen or pencil, allowing you to use your favorite writing utensil. All your child needs to do us learn to hold their pen or pencil correctly.To make the grip, start by threading the rubber bands onto the loom. Once you have a comfortable grip, carefully remove it from the loom. You might need to use a pair of scissors to cut off any excess rubber bands. 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. With adequate teaching and practice, children will likely reach a functional grasp without a pen grip. It’s important to note that younger children usually undergo a series of immature grips as they learn to write correctly. This sequence will progress as their pencil grasp matures until they reach a comfortable writing grip they’ll adopt for the rest of adulthood. Endorsed by the Arthritis Foundation, this retractable ballpoint pen also boasts a contoured rubber grip to give you maximum control. Plus, the refillable ink allows your pen to be reused instead of being replaced, which is not only more economical but also environmentally-conscious. A functional pencil grasp, often known as the dynamic tripod grasp, involves holding the pencil between the tips of the thumb, index and middle fingers. The index finger controls the pen’s movement, while the thumb and middle fingers help with directional control. The pencil movement comes from the fingers, reducing pressure on the wrist.

Pencil grips can make writing easier for people with conditions that make it difficult to hold a pen or pencil with the correct grip in their hand. Pencil Gripper: The Pencil Grips were designed by a doctor & are widely used in classrooms, at home, & in therapeutic settings. The unique shape is designed to be “one size fits all” to help the hands of kids & adults, & works for both righties & lefties.Lateral thumb-wrapped grasp: The thumb wraps over the pencil to press it against the index finger for control. The fingers will help hold the pencil but do not move during writing. Pens like the Fisher Space Pen are known for being able to write no matter what position they are placed in. They can even write upside down and at zero gravity! That said, look for a writing tool that gives you a lot of flexibility when you hold it. You want to be able to use the pen or pencil in a way that is most comfortable for you. Weight (or Pressure Needed)
