The best pencil grip for hypermobile fingers

Review by Happy child

My son has very hypermobile hands and is also left handed. Over the years we had tried maybe ten or more different types of pencil grips until, thankfully, finally finding this one. It is the only grip that has resulted in the correct grasp of a pencil /pen. It prevents finger / thumb slipping forward and allows the pencil /pen to be held less tightly, so writing is less tiring. Can be used for left or right handed. I wholly recommend. My son has been using these grips for a few years now, at school and at home, and he's very happy with them.
