Writing Aid

This little aid helps kids to hold a pen, pencil, or crayon better.

The Story
It started with a request from an occupational therapist who works at my school. She asked for something to guide the fingers of a girl when holding a colored pencil. We started with an existing design from thisables.com (https://thisables.com/de/new-developments/finger-brush/). But this design didn't fit in this case. So I went to work.

I shifted the position of the pen to the side a bit and it worked way better. I also tilted the angle of the guidance for the pencil. You can see what huge of a difference this little writing aid makes now!

The Files
The girl in these pictures holds the pen in her left hand. I mirrored the files so that they can be used with the right hand as well. As you can flip and turn this little helper in many ways, feel free to try out what is best for you or the person you are printing this for. You can't be wrong if it works. :)

Let's talk pens! They come in all sizes
