Great for adults too! (but kind of pricey)
I am an adult and I bought these to help with hand cramping from long notetaking sessions. They are very effective for this purpose. The size is good for an adult hand and the material is soft and comfortable. They work for both left and right hands, although the left grip is not quite identical in shape to the right. This does not affect much though.I bought the skinny clickable (retractable) pens to put them on. If you use them on the skinny pens with caps, they prevent the cap from being put back on unless you reposition the grip closer to the center of the pen. I didn't want to have to do this over and over because I was afraid it would make the hole too loose, so I just use them with the clickable pens.I took off one star, because they are expensive for what they are--I would expect them to be closer to $1. Also, they will melt and leave a sticky residue on whatever they are touching if you leave them in your backpack in a hot car (the melting is only enough to make other things sticky though--it isn't enough to deform the grip or make it useless).

These are amazing!
My 1st grader uses these on all of his pencils! His teacher first gave him one, but now we have a ton of them. They've made a huge difference in his writing and hand grip/comfort. Thanks for making such a great product!

We thought our son was a lefty since he always chose his left hand to do everything. But when he became a Kindergartener couldn't decide and went back and forth between right and left, causing him to get behind because he wasnt getting the practice or control he needed to write well. We ordered thes and one other type of grip and these ones really helped him. Hes decided hes right handed and doing very well now. Thank you for your grippers (:

I looked in four different stores and couldn't find pencil grips for my 6 year old. He holds the pencils incorrectly and so I didn't want him to develop any bad habits. These are exactly what I am looking for. They even help my 4 year old left handed boy. Very effective and inexpensive!

Good quality
I thought these were very nice. Just a tad big for my grandsons fingers. But he will grow into it

Great OT reccomendation
Reccomended by OT. They work great. Wish the quantity vs price point was a bit better. We use them everyday in multiple areas.

Great for Lefties
My son is left handed and was having difficulty gripping a pencil to learn to write his letters. We tried multiple grips but once we found this one his writing has improved by leaps and bounds. Even his teachers have commented on how well he is doing using them. He has them at home, school, and carries in his backpack for the just in case times.

My OT in my school recommended this for our son
My son needed a different pencil grip for his handwriting. My OT in my school recommended this for our son. He uses this daily and they are still holding up. His handwriting has improved and helps him have a better grip on his pencil.

Comfortable by don't easily train fingers where to go
I have an eight year old son with terrible handwriting. During the pandemic, we decided to purchase some pencil grips to help him work on the correct finger position. These grips arrived with no instructions (we eventually figured out which way was 'up' and where the fingers are supposed to be positioned). Unfortunately, my son can easily bypass this type of pencil grip and go back to his 'fist' grip. I find them to be comfortable enough, but comfort just isn't as important to us right now.

Cute, durable, effective
These are very durable and comfortable. My daughter can write a lot better with this grip, we’ve dedicated one for home and put the rest away for school supplies. She said she’s excited to show her teacher.

Still hard to use
Was a gift for grandkids. Although it helped a bit, they will need professional occupational therapy. Was worth a try though. Product easy to put on pencil and easy to keep clean.

2/6 of the pencil grips were broken
2/6 of the pencil grips were torn and ripped beyond repair. Would not recommend.

Great product!
Exactly what I expected to get! Easy to put onto the pencil, and to remove as well. Definitely help my son hold his pencil correctly :)
