Correct pencil grip will help with your child's writing fluency and muscle memory. Having a correct pencil grip will help your child not burn out or fatigue while writing, especially as they start writing more and more. The time to fix your child's grip is now! The longer you wait the harder it is to change or correct.
We teach the pinch and flip method. The video link below teaches what that looks like. We say "put your baby to bed" when we flip the pencil. And "Put a pillow under its head" when we move our middle finger below the pinched pointer finger and thumb.
