In fact, one is sitting on my desk right now. (This should not surprise you.) My JBug, at 14, writes wrong and causes a callus on her fingers.

I wish I had a handful of those when my Lucas was in kindy, he had a hard time with the pencil holding thing at first and it really frustrated him. That is really nifty!
