    Adaptive Pencils

    They write smooth erase cleanly, but the included pencil sharpener doesn't put a good point on the pencil. Buy the Up&Up two hole manual pencil sharpener instead of fussing around with the included one.

    Perfect pencil for beginners

    Great pencils for kids who are just starting to learn how to hold pencils and trace. The lead holds up really good and doesn’t break off easily. My kids are learning how to trace and they can be a little rough on the pencil but it holds up and doesn’t break.

    really great pencils, no complaints!

    we love these pencils! they are fat enough to aid with my little one's grips and they are sturdy and sharpen easily. these are all issues we have with other pencils. the tip on this stays put and is never wobbly or broken, the wood doesn't flake - it is smooth when cut. the erasers are substantial for lots of erasing. overall, these are a nice pick, and I'm glad we found them for school activities!

    Perfect for Little Hands!

    I bought the Ticonderoga My First Pencil from Target for my kindergartener, and it’s been a great choice. The thicker barrel is ideal for young children who are just learning how to write—it helps them hold the pencil correctly and comfortably. The lead is strong and writes smoothly, and the eraser is soft and effective. Plus, it came pre-sharpened, which was super convenient. Great quality as always from Ticonderoga, and easy to find at Target!

    Perfect pencils!

    I don’t write a lot of reviews, but these deserve one. These things HOLD UP. They sharpen so smoothly, write smoothly, are the perfect thickness for little hands to hold when learning pencil grip. We’ve had the same one out for two years (homeschooling) and it’s still going strong. I’m so impressed and will buy this brand forever.

    Great for little kids

    These are the best pencils for beginning writers and artists! The barrel is larger for good grip and they sharpen easily. The included sharpener is the perfect size for regular pencils and for these larger ones.

    Ticonderoga pencils for the win

    I teach preschool, and these are perfect pencils for my students! Plus, one pencil will last them the whole school year (so I don’t mind being the one who purchases them each year)! They do not break like other brands and are fatter, for an easier grip for tiny fingers.
