Kids are expected to hold a pencil long before their hands are developed enough to write. When they physically can’t grasp the pencil and can’t keep up – they get frustrated, they give up. As parents, you may not know why and you may feel like a failure as a parent. It’s not your fault, but it sure feels like it.
Get your child back on track, restore success in school, and enjoy knowing you’re doing the best for their future.


From the moment we kissed our little ones goodbye on the first day of school, we envisioned them running happily into our arms at the end of the school day full of sweet stories about what they learned and the joys of how they’re succeeding.
But what happens when your child isn’t keeping up and feels left behind?
We want to put your mind at ease. As licensed occupational therapists, we’ve worked with thousands of children just like yours. That’s why we created Build-a-grip, a revolutionary grip to create great writing habits for hands that are not ready to hold a pencil.

1. Attach Build-A-Grip to your child’s pencil.

2. Adapt Build-A-Grip’s position as your child grows.

3. Observe the positive impact on your child’s success.
For your child to succeed in today’s classroom, they may be required to grip a pencil long before their little hands are fully developed.
Without proper support, this can be a difficult and uncomfortable task that puts them at a disadvantage. Created by occupational therapists, Build-A-Grip will give your children the support they need when learning to grip a pencil, making the task both positive and developmentally appropriate. Build-A-Grip’s innovative technology helps children:
Crafted with the sole aim to make writing less stressful
and make it easier for them in school.
Reduce the stress and worry that your child will lag behind in school.
Watch them learn to enjoy writing and be excited again about school.
Feel good that you’re helping your child achieve.
