STABILO EASYcolors - Ergonomic Colouring Pencil - Right-Handed - Pack of 12 - Assorted Colours with Sharpener

These are our favourite colouring pencils for small hands! My children are 4&6 and this is the second set of these colouring pencils which we've had. They're really easy to hold, encourage correct pencil grip and the colour quality on the paper is exceptional. We will probably continue to buy these as they work so well! My only gripe is that the sharpener that comes with it is a bit naff, so invest in a decent sharpener for thick pencils.

On the advice of a primary teacher I purchased these colouring pencils for my grandson. The package was delivered on time as stated and was well-packed. The grip is really useful to strengthen the minor motor skills of infant school children. I would recommend. Communication on the seller’s part has been excellent.

My little one loves to colour, but she had been struggling to hold her pencil correctly with a tripod grip. These STABILO colouring pencils have been a great help in guiding her fingers into the right position and improving her control when colouring in. They make drawing, writing, and learning so much more comfortable and fun! I’d definitely recommend them for any child learning to hold their pencil properly.

Easy to hold, bright, perfect softness Higher price is justified, it's the 2nd pack I got for my son (1st was brought to him as a souvenir from Prague, and he was using only those pencils until they ended)

I initially bought these for my daughter in Reception upon advice from her teacher. At the time she struggled with gripping her pencils properly and she struggled to bear down hard enough for her writing to be seen when using pencils. The notches on the pencil helped her with her grip. The lead is thick and hard enough, as well as excellent quality, for her writing and drawing to be seen. And the lead rarely breaks, not when she bear's down hard or even when dropped on our hard tiled floor. While more expensive that most other coloured pencils, they are very high quality and definitely worth the price. After regular use for over two and a half years, we are now buying our second set for her. I ended up buying right handed versions of these coloured pencils and regular pencils for my younger daughter when she started school last September. It is a great product.

My son (7) has trouble staying focussed when writing and the OT recommended the Easy Stabilo pencils for writing. He uses the pencils and they are easier for him to grip and his handwriting definitely improves when he uses them. As a follow on I got him the colouring pencils too, and he loves them and uses them every day at school. He has his own pencil case with all his Easy pencils in at his workstation in the classroom to support his concentration needs at school and he definitely benefits from using them. The other children love to borrow them as they are easier to use and handle. Maybe school should use these for all children learning to write!

These are fantastic.

My just turned 5 year old son has been fiercely resisting colouring, drawing, writing or anything really that resembles school, and as a consequence his school has referred him to an occupational therapist (ergotherapeut?) in an effort to boost his fine motor skills. I bought these in an effort to try to encourage him to at least try colouring!! I will still have to pretty much force him to sit down as he would much rather be doing something else,but we have had 2 successful colouring sessions so far.. His fine motor skills won't develop overnight, but because these pencils sit nicely in his hand he did feel more confident colouring and seemed to enjoy it- so much so that he actually said 'I didn't know that colouring could be so much fun!' Hopefully we will also have many more successful colouring sessions - but I don't want to push it either!! The colours are very nice and bold, and cover properly unlike some cheap pencils... They are chunkier than most, but sit well in a small hand.. They don't seem to break too easily. They are easy to sharpen and I realise I will have to monitor sharpening as my boy rather oversharpened one so it is now about an inch shorter than the others, not I think because it kept breaking but because he was just enjoying himself!! I gave the pencils 4 stars rather than 5 because they are quite expensive but I suppose if you compare them individually with artist's pencils they aren't so extortionate! I do recommend them, not just for children who are struggling with 'normal' pencils but all children really as I think it will be difficult to go back to 'normal' pencils after these..

Uitstekende potloden. Perfect om de penhandgreep in de kleuterklas mee te oefenen. Mijn drie kinderen (8, 5 en 3) zijn er dol op. In andere winkels zijn ze meestal prijziger.

I am an occupational therapist and these are a great way to promote a proper grasp on a pencil. Highly suggest

Die STABILO EASYcolors (12er Pack für Rechtshänder) mit Spitzer sind ideal für Kinder ab 3! Der dreikantige, grifffreundliche Griff fördert den korrekten Bleistifthalt, ohne dass die Stifte brechen oder verrutschen. Tolle Farben, langlebig und waschbar. Unser 6-Jähriger malt stundenlang ohne Frust. Praktisch und preiswert – absolute Empfehlung für Eltern!

Maravillosos lápices gruesos e ideales para los niños que tienen dificultades con la escritura y el agarre, con unas muescas que impiden que se resbalen. Colores muy vivos y con trazo intenso. Los compro cada año. Ya que son los mejores. Un acierto.

Sehr gute Stifte für Kinder die Linkshänder sind. Ideal für Linkshänder kann den kauf nur empfehlen.
