- Ticonderoga My First Half-Size Wooden Pencils, Large Triangle-Barrel Pre-Sharpened #2 (HB) Short 4.5" Yellow Pencils with Erasers, Yellow, 12/Pack

Young children learning to write love these pencils. Many choose this shorter, triangular version over the large, spherical "My First Pencil". Get these Ticonderoga brand "My First Pencils", too. I bought more at Wal-mart of their generic brand, I think Pen and Gear, and all the erasers fell off. And those eraser tops don't fit on these thicker, my first pencils. But the ticonderoga are great. Make sure you buy a large pencil sharpener, too. They come sharpened and are high quality, but will not fit in the sharpener for a standard size pencil. Great for helping early writers.

These pencils are not only adorable, but the triangle barrel shape is helping my daughter learn to hold her pencil properly. Like every toddler, she has the death grip on crayons and such and ends up breaking them way to easy because she presses so hard. I started working with her on her grip and writing and she has improved greatly almost instantly. Ticonderoga's are my favorite with the smooth writing and easy to erase and the little version is just as excellent!!!

These are great pencils for kindergartners! They don’t break easily, the students hold it correctly! Easy to sharpen!

Best thing to invest in if you’re just teaching your kids how to write sharpness easy for them to get sharpened on their own very good quality. I think it’s worth the price. It’s fun to use for him because it’s small enough for his hands versus the ones that I started him out with I did not know about these at all so props his teacher I love them.

I am starting homeschool with my soon to be 3 year old for preschool and part of that is learning how to properly hold a pencil for writing and drawing. I was finding that normal pencils were just a little too much for his tiny hands. When I found these, I was super excited to try them. They are perfect for his little hands and the flattened sides help him to hold the pencil properly. These were exactly what I was looking for! They came already sharpened. The pack we got was all yellow, but that was fine by us. They seem durable, even for little boys. I am very happy with my purchase, they were very worth the money.

Bought these for my 2 year old grandson. They are larger around to give him better grip, and the shorter length means he won't have to manage a "too long" pencil.

I picked these up for my kids, and they’re honestly a total win. The wider, triangular shape makes them so much easier for little hands to grip compared to a standard skinny pencil. My kids actually think they’re adorable because they’re short, which makes them feel more like a 'special' tool for them to use. Plus, the erasers are surprisingly high-quality—they actually clear the page without smudging or tearing the paper. Definitely sticking with these for schoolwork!

Perfect for my 3 year old. Leaning how to grip pencil this is a perfect size.

This are perfect for their purpose. Thank you

It’s the write size for my toddlers finger. It’s short and thick , it’s easier for him to write

The best pencils for toddlers! Great quality, easy to hold. They don’t break easy but easy to sharpen when needed.

These pencils are a great size and weight for your little ones who are learning to write or for your struggling writers. The triangular shape, the length of pencil and the weight of the pencil allows for their little hands to grip with ease making printing and drawing more comfortable and enjoyable. Highly Recommend.

Absolutely worth the price if you don’t want to be constantly sharpening pencils. Perfect for chunky little hands. ✏️
