The Pencil Grip Pencil Grips, The Crossover Grip, Metallic Ergonomic Writing Aid For Righties And Lefties, Colorful Pencil Grippers, Assorted Metallic Colors, 6 Count - TPG-17706
The Crossover Grip improves kids handwriting by helping to give more control, reduce hand fatigue, and increase comfort. Writing with The Crossover Grip is easy and natural. Other rigid, harder grips can cause hand pain and discourage practice. The unique €œwings€ of the grip cover the thumb and pointer finger gently and hold them in the proper position for gripping €“ the Tripod Grip.
The Crossover Grip was designed by a doctor and is widely used in classrooms, at home, and in therapeutic settings. It uses the same proven design as The Pencil Grip, the #1 grip recommended to help kids write, and has added "wings€ to prevent the common problem of fingers crossing over each other. This makes The Crossover Grip the perfect stepping-stone during children€s handwriting development. It is a €œone size fits all€ product that helps the hands of both righties and lefties.
Slide the wider end of the grip on first. Righties and Lefties simply place their thumb on the €œR€ or the €œL€ printed on the grip. Fingers will naturally fall into place with the middle finger on the underside of the grip. The images on the left show proper positioning.
A comfortable hand allows for fuller cognition, has more control, and shows improved handwriting. The Crossover Grip guides and gently holds the hand in an ergonomic position. Consistent use teaches and reinforces the proper grip, and stops common problems like fingers crossing over, fist grips, thumb-wrapping, and white-knuckling. Parents, teachers, and occupational therapists widely recommend using The Crossover Grip.
The Crossover Grip is easy to use and instantly reinforces the proper grip. Improvements come quickly with frequent use. The flexibility of the soft, rubbery, latex-free material allows it to fit on pencils, pens, crayons, and many writing instruments. This creates many opportunities for teaching and reinforcing the proper grip.
Invented in 1992 by Dr. Lois Provda, a prominent educational therapist, The Pencil Grip became a family endeavor. Two decades later, the company is still run by the Provdas. The family is incredibly grateful to the millions of parents, teachers, and therapists who have put their trust in their products.
