A few months ago we had the privilege of reviewing a product from The Pencil Grip, Inc. so when we were picked to receive and review The Ultra Safe Safety Scissors and The 3 Step Pencil Grip Training Kit, from them we were excited. We knew that they would be fun items to use and we were not disappointed.
I sure wish I would have had the Ultra Safe Safety Scissors when my kids were younger. They are so unique and they keep little fingers from getting cut. I was impressed with how well they were made and how easy they were to use.
So what makes them different from other safety scissors? Instead of having very dull blades like other safety scissors, they have a guard over the blades to shield your child from getting cut. They cut with ease, yet are safe for your younger ones to use. These also have a blunt end so they can not poke your children as they use them.
Do you have little ones learning to write? The 3 Step Pencil Grip Training Kit may be perfect for you. These grips help little hands learn to hold pencils. My children had fun using each one and said it would have been beneficial to have these when they were learning to grip their pencil/pens. These grips are soft and made of silicone and come in different colors. They make learning to write fun for children. I appreciated that you can use them on many different pencils, pens or even crayons because they slide on and off easily.
At first, you start with the crossover grip. The wings keep little fingers from crossing over. My daughter said it was a bit awkward using at first, but once she got used to it, it was comfortable for her fingers.
After your child has mastered the crossover grip, you will transition them to the pinch grip. This grip loses the "cape", but still gives them a thick part to pinch with their fingers to ensure the proper grip.
The final one is the original pencil grip. This one is my favorite. It was very comfortable to use and it actually improved our 12-year old's handwriting skills.
The only issue we had with the pencil grips was that as you placed them on different writing utensils, they would stretch and rip just a bit around the openings. This didn't keep us from using them, but I could see how after prolonged use, they may not stay positioned properly on the pencil or pen. Even though we had this little problem, it wouldn't keep me from recommending them to my friends and family.
We enjoyed trying these extraordinary products and hope that you will check them out for yourself. I encourage you to check out their website and social media pages to learn more about these products and more.
