About this product
HandiWriter Writing Aid – a simple, highly effective device that guides children into perfect writing posture, grip and hand position naturally and comfortably.
The HandiWriter consists of a soft elastic wrist loop, a small loop that goes around the pen or pencil, and a cord with a charm held in the palm of the hand. These three elements work together to encourage the therapist-recommended "tripod grip" without any effort or conscious correction.
We invited a friend's left-handed daughter to try out the HandiWriter as we weren't sure if it was just a gimmick. She started with a fairly bad writing style, holding the pencil in a "fist" grip and very vertically so she couldn't see what she was writing and smudged her work straight away. The first time she tried the HandiWriter, she immediately had a perfect writing position – her writing was hugely improved, she felt a lot more comfortable, and it was very difficult for her to smudge her work. Both she and her mother were amazed by the difference it made. This is definitely not a gimmick – it works really well.
Available in blue, black and red. Made from soft cotton stretch knit band and satin cord. Hand washing and air-drying recommended.
Warning: Contains small parts – adult supervision recommended.

Immediate results in all children. I see Children in Care for Health Assessments, and this includes educational progress. Children with a poor grip (right or left handed) are able to write with a mature tripod grip immediately with the HandiWriter, and I then make using this one of the recommendations in their Health Care Plan.

Instant improvement My 5 year old twin sons are both left handed and were struggling with their pencil grip at school. I bought them one each and we had instant improvement in grip and letter formation. One of my boys said "Oh Mummy, this is making me so happy!" Their school have since ordered some for school too.

Ingenious I brought this product for my 6 year old grandson who was struggling with his writing. My daughter and I couldn't believe how such a simple product could make such a difference. It has really helped and given him confidence as he can see the results himself. A great little tool !

Amazing My 7 year old finds this device very easy to use and for the first time is able to hold his pencil comfortably and correctly. He was getting upset at school as his teachers and peers were commenting on how he was holding his pencil. We call it his lucky charm. Great invention!
