The Pencil Grip Crossover Grip Ergonomic Writing Aid for Righties and Lefties, 6 Count Metallic Colors (TPG-17706)

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 “one 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 “R” or the “L” 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.
