Golf Pencils

These Ticonderoga golf pencils have been an absolute game-changer for my kindergartner who has motor planning issues. He struggles to hold a standard-length pencil correctly and tends to move his hand higher and higher as he writes, which negatively affects his grip and control. The shorter length of these pencils naturally forces his hand lower, helping him maintain a more appropriate grip position. While this isn’t a cure-all, it has made a noticeable difference and provides consistent support during writing tasks. Because of their effectiveness, these pencils are actually included in his IEP goals by occupational therapy, which speaks volumes about their usefulness as an adaptive tool. They’re simple, affordable, and practical—yet incredibly effective. If your child has difficulty with pencil grip, hand positioning, or motor planning, I highly recommend trying these. Sometimes the simplest tools make the biggest difference.

I use these for my nine year old who still has issues with the tripod hold. Because they are small, they force her to hold her pencil correctly, most of the time. I think these would also be beneficial for younger children just getting out of the palmer grasp and learning to proper hold a pencil. They also are a high quality to write with, super sharp, and Ticonderoga has the best erasers. I will/would purchase again, but with 72 won't have to for awhile. Also, unrelated, but I've read that having children struggling/being stubborn holding the pencil correctly sometimes improve when writing standing against the wall. Just wanted to share for all the other parents whose kiddos are holding their pencils like cave people and are less than willing to change. IT'S IMPORTANT TO GET THIS CORRECTED BY AGE 6/7- I've done a ton of research on this and we're REALLY struggling with an older child because we didn't force it earlier. Don't delay and save your child and yourself both the heartache.

Teacher approved! These are the pencils our daughter’s kindergarten teacher swears by! They are the perfect size and great durability/quality for little hands! We ordered her teacher a box for a gift- as she orders them out of her own money for her students! ❤️

As an occupational therapist, these are my go-to pencils for children ages 3–5 who are developing early writing skills. The short length of golf pencils naturally encourages a functional tripod grasp and helps prevent fisted or inefficient grasp patterns that are common with full-length pencils. The #2 HB lead writes smoothly with minimal pressure, which supports developing hand strength and motor control without causing fatigue. The built-in erasers are helpful for young learners and reduce frustration during early pre-writing and drawing activities. These pencils are durable, easy for small hands to manage, and ideal for preschool classrooms, therapy sessions, and home practice. They’re a simple, effective tool for supporting proper grasp development, fine motor skills, and early handwriting readiness. Highly recommend for early learners and anyone working with young children.

We seem to always be looking for a pencil. These are a nice size. They are small but for people like us who seem to lose pencils all the time these are perfect. Plenty of pencils in the box. As a plus the are pretty much the Dixon Ticonderogas I have used since grade school. Just smaller

I love Ticonderoga pencils, but I was making activity bins and wanted something smaller to fit in the case (photo cases), and these are perfect! The kiddos love seeing shorter pencils, but they are still the good quality ones. Easy to write with and use, and easy on little hands.

Just regular ol pencils :). I didn’t read the description and didn’t realize they’re small. Great for kids though!

Nice quality. Perfect size for small children learning to use a pencil. They come sharpened and are a good price for so many! I’m sure also work for golfing but that’s now why I got therem.
