Laddie Tri-Write Wood-Cased Pencils, #2 HB Soft

These pencils should be standard issue for young writers. So many kids these days hold pencils incorrectly and this type of triangular shaped pencil goes a long way to help them comfortably hold the pencil the right way. I purchased these pencils because I used triangular shaped Ticonderoga pencils in the past, and they were approximately the same 'diameter' as a normal hexagon type of pencil. This particular line of Laddie Tri-Write pencils are a larger diameter with a larger diameter lead - yet another plus for young writers, they are easier to hold because of their slightly larger size, and sort of stay sharp for a longer period of time. They would also be a great replacement for a carpenter's pencil as well. Great product.

Love these pencils for my students. They feel good in the hand and the erasers last much longer than traditional pencils.

My son struggles mightily with handwriting. I mean, really really struggles. He likes these pencils a lot. They are more comfortable for him, though his handwriting still is very poor. One thing I really like about these— they don’t scream “my first pencil” or “kindergarten pencil” or any other juvenile label. My son is older and that would embarrass him. The larger size and triangle shape help him, but they don’t look out of place at school. Lead seems soft, sharpens well. Will be buying again.

The box came just as shown but the pencils are undamaged and they’re all there

You get quite a few in a box so I do wish you had the option to buy less. However with that being said, these pencils are great. I homeschool my 4 y/o and we have tried regular pencils, the big “my first pencils” that are just round, and finally these big triangular pencils. These are my favorite, and more importantly my sons favorite. His little fingers go into the correct pencil grip position when using this pencil, whereas when he uses round pencils he takes more time to figure it out and is constantly readjusting his fingers. I would recommend them to anyone with little kids learning how to hold a pencil OR adults who just was a comfortable pencil!

I think these get dropped too many times in transit. They are breaking when being sharpened, but my kids love the thick triangle shape.

Such a great transition writing tool for early writers. I have purchased this pencil for my classroom of early writers and it has improved their handwriting. It has also helped strengthen weak hand muscles into using the proper writing grip. This is such a great product from a tried and true company.

These pencils are perfect for a preschool child. They are easy to hold and a great value!

Ils sont parfaits pour mon garçon de 7 ans.

Best pencil a carpenter can use

Kids and adults love it, it will not roll off the table.
