If you feel your child truly has a delay in fine motor skills and handwriting, please seek the help of a professional and don’t try to treat them yourself. As I constantly update the videos, I also recommend that you subscribe to our Youtube channel or join our newsletteror follow our Facebook page so you receive notifications when new videos are released. These can purchased as pictured, but can also be made with or without the charm support, by using two terry cloth hair bands using these directions, or by following the visual sequence for creating one using elastic bands.

Inefficient grasps are used as a child attempts to compensate for lack of stability, skill finger strength, and endurance. This reminds the child to keep those fingers closed in their hand with the correct fingers on the pencil.Triangular Pencil Grips: These grips have a triangular shape, providing a natural grip and encouraging proper finger placement for better control and stability while writing. The OT Toolbox has a great Pencil Grasp Bundle available for purchase to support various needs related to pencil grasp. This can be a good option for older children as it forces them to adopt a different finger position. Experiment with different options to find the grips and tools that work best for you or your child’s needs and preferences.

Grotto Grips: These grips have a hollow center, allowing the fingers to rest comfortably and reducing strain on the hand during writing. We plan to cover the PreK-12 and Higher Education EdTech sectors and provide our readers with the latest news and opinion on the subject. Jumbo Pencil Grips: These grips are larger in size and provide a wide surface area for kids with limited fine motor skills to hold the pencil more securely.The visuals will help parents and teachers understand grasp development and the goals for an appropriate grasping pattern. Finally, we’ll cover a variety of related resources and activities to support the development of pencil grip use. For children younger than five it is important is to look at writing utensils that will help to support their finger and hand development first, before giving them a pencil grip. I will also note that the only way to really know what type of pencil will work is to get the advice of an Occupational Therapist who can assess your child’s fine motor skills and make a professional opinion based on their evaluation. Weighted Pencil Grips: These grips add weight to the pencil, providing sensory feedback and improving control for individuals with motor coordination difficulties.
