Teaching Children the Proper Pencil Grip.
Try this at home Holding a pencil with the correct pencil grip requires a child to move his fingers in unfamiliar ways. The fastest, easiest, and most fun way for your child to strengthen his pencil grip is by practicing writing and tracing. To start, sit with your child while he doodles. As long as he is holding the crayon or pencil with the correct pencil grip, any artistic creation will be a success! Encourage him to draw circles, curves and straight lines, to give his fingers practice with many different movements.
