Pencil Grips

Pencil grips are the simplest of writing aids, but can be very effective in supporting handwriting. When children aren’t using the correct pencil grip, they will often wrap their thumb around the pencil, place their fingers too high or too close to the lead. As a result, they do not have the proper control to write, their handwriting is messy, it takes them ages to put their thoughts onto paper and their hands can often hurt. Correct pencil grip is essential not only to improve handwriting but also to facilitate comfort and fluidity of writing.
If the grip cannot be changed without support then a pencil grip is often recommended by doctors, teachers, and occupational therapists for children and it can also help adults. A grip can reduce fatigue or reduce pain. Pencil grips help the student maintain a position of stability to allow for efficient mobility and improved handwriting. They are also used by adults to increase ergonomic support in the fingers, hand and wrist.
