Crayon Rocks.
Crayon Rocks after being inspired by Jan Olsen, ORT, and the Handwriting Without Tears program. I learned from her how important it was to develop early a good tripod grip, handwriting skills depend upon this. Since a child's first writing tool is usually a crayon, that crayon should be one that encourages him or her to use thumb, first and second fingers in a tripod grip. This is what makes Crayon Rocks a wonderful tool for fine motor development.
A really good crayon should take very little effort in applying great swaths of color to the paper. In fact, that crayon should be as much like paint as possible, great colors that go on smoothly and easily, helping little fingers to grow strong as they spill their creative ideas on to paper. I wanted a coloring tool that students with grip strength problems and disorders affecting fine motor control could use AND enjoy.
Children with cerebral palsy, autism, developmental delays and various forms of learning disabilities have tested Crayon Rocks in the classroom. Parents and teachers of special needs students often tell me how much their children love them.
Currently we are left with a few sets of 12 colours. You may join in our pre-orders for new 16, 12 & 8 colours crayon rocks.
