Pencil Grip Hack for Kids!

Simple and Effective!

As a Paediatric Physiotherapist I always advocate for play based learning and activities that build hand strength, coordination and dexterity such as:

✅ Playdough
✅ Threading
✅ Building Blocks

But SOMETIMES we just need a cue to help us with handwriting skills and YES there are many types of grips that children can use and these follow a sequential developmental pattern. So WHEN do I use this drill?

⭐ This is for kids who may have some fatigue or lack endurance and control when using a tripod grip
⭐ Are learning how to use a tripod grip but need independent practice and support

WHY would I do this?

✅ Quality of Quantity! Let's practice quality writing and drawing and build good fine motor patterns because Neurons that FIRE together WIRE together!
