Firesara has so many various types or packs of pencil correction grips that people get confused not knowing how to choose the right one for their kids/students. So today we are going to explain our pencil positioner.
Normally we’d like to classify pencil grips via these metrics below.
Classify by finger hole and handle
Grips with finger holes teach kids finger positions for holding a pencil, and they are normally made for thumb, index, middle that are important roles for efficient pencil grasp.
The more finger holes, the more control on fingers.
The handle on the gripper is normally used to keep fingers from overlapping on palm. There should be a hollow between palm and fingers as per right pencil grasp.
Classify by stages
It is a better idea for kids to learn correct grip stage by stage, so we’ve come up with pencil grip training kit for helping kids to gradually master grip through 2-4 stages.
Classify by other metrics
You may also classify Firesara pencil grips in packs, lefties or righties, or writing utensils, etc
Are they for right or left handed?
Are they for regular or large pencils?
Do they come in various diameters?
How many does one pack include?
