Jumbo Grip

Discover the secret behind comfortable writing and improved handwriting with the Jumbo Grip pencil thickener. This revolutionary writing aid is the answer to the prayers of both adults and children, including both righties and lefties. The Jumbo Grip is specially designed to be up to 40% larger than the traditional Pencil Grip, making it the only pencil thickener that provides support up to the second knuckle. The Arthritis Foundation has recommended this grip as "easy" and "comfortable," making it an ideal choice for anyone looking for an effortless writing experience.

Why choose the Jumbo Grip?

The Jumbo Grip not only enhances comfort and control while writing but also contributes to the quality of your handwriting. This writing aid utilizes the proven design of The Pencil Grip, but thanks to its larger size, it can offer more support. Unlike other large pencil thickeners, the Jumbo Grip feels natural due to its ergonomic design and soft, flexible, latex-free materials. The unique shape gently encourages the fingers and hand to adopt the proper posture - The Tripod Grip.

The Jumbo Grip was designed by a doctor and is widely used in classrooms, at home, and in therapeutic settings. Its unique, universal shape assists both children and adults, and is suitable for both right-handers and left-handers. The Jumbo Grip can serve as a training tool or be used permanently for additional support. It fits on pencils, thicker pencils, pens, crayons, markers, paintbrushes, and more, making its benefits broadly applicable.

The Jumbo Grip reduces the impact of hand health issues on daily life and improves quality of life. The large size of the Jumbo Grip does not require a closed hand to hold, which is a significant advantage for adults with reduced hand strength, dexterity, or clenching problems.

For children, a comfortable hand means fuller cognition, more control, and improved handwriting. The Jumbo Grip guides and gently holds the hand in an ergonomic position. Since the Jumbo Grip is larger than other pencil thickeners, it offers additional benefits for children who are still developing their early fine motor skills. A larger grip is easier for a smaller hand to hold, as it requires less precise muscle control.

How to use?

Slide the wider end of the grip onto the writing utensil first. Righties and lefties simply place their thumb on the "R" or "L" printed on the grip. Fingers will naturally fall into place with the middle finger on the underside of the grip. The images show the correct positioning.
