And the best part? These supplies were recommended by some pretty cool Occupational Therapists. Unique, fun, and good for development? A no-brainer if you ask me.
Rock Crayons: Ok, how cool are these?! Is it a rock, or is it a crayon? Why not both! These crayons are great because they are easier for little hands to hold. They help children have a better grip while prompting good fine motor skills. Get ready for 64 crayons, 32 colors, of fun packed in this box.
Scented Markers: It’s no surprise that markers are a necessity on every school supply list. But sprinkle in a little scent, and you have a whole new sensory experience! These are a great option for children who need something a little bit extra.
Spring Assisted Scissors: Let’s be honest, cutting is complicated. These scissors are perfect for little learners as they learn this not-so-simple task. The spring assists little fingers with opening and closing, leading to quicker success and a much more pleasant cutting experience.
Short pencils: Whether you are golfing or learning to write, short pencils are (surprisingly) a great tool! This pencil length helps children have a better grip on the pencil, which helps promote better handwriting. It’s an easy strategy that’s worth a shot. (No golf clubs required).
Chunky Pencil Grips: An oldie-but-goodie. These colorful pencil add-ons help provide cushy support and promote a more ergonomic hold on the pencil. Not to mention they jazz up any boring pencil and make it just a little bit extra.
Gone are the days were school supplies are boring. we live in a world where basic supplies can be transformed into fun and engaging parts of the learning experience. This approach not only makes school more enjoyable but also encourages students to take pride in their work and express their individuality.
