Learning to write is an exciting process. It begins at a very early stage with the child’s first scribbled pictures. Whilst a toddler grasp the pen with his whole hand closed around it to draw, a schoolchild can already hold the pen using a three finger grasp. Here the pen lies on the middle finger and is controlled using the thumb and index finger. A specially formed grip promotes the correct finger position. The Faber Castell Junior writing instruments does exactly that and furthers the correct posture of pupils who are making their first attempts at writing, since its recessed ergonomic grip zone gives each finger the optimum position for holding the pen in the three-finger grip. The Junior writing instruments come with ink rollerball pens which accept international standard ink cartridges and also the mechanical pencils with 1.4mm lead refills. These writing instruments come with very lively colors and they are just cute and nice. We took pictures of them and they are available in our website.
