Ticonderoga My First Tri-Write Wood-Cased Pencils, Unsharpened

Great for kindergartners

Excellente

Primary better than intermediate. First I use Triwrite because they are more ergonomic, not that they don't roll over. When choosing Triangular pencils its always TICONGEROGA TRIWRITE VRS TICONDEROGA TRIWRITE. Now which TRIWRITE to choose? They come as STANDARD, LADDIE & MY FIRST. Well I am a teaching Prof in a medical school and had been using Standard then shifted to LADDIE a year ago. Well there is no difference in external size, only that LADDIE has a thicker core which I found suitable for me. For my kid ( preschool) I had given him LADDIE then came across MY FIRST and decided to try. Well these have a thicker external diameter as well as a thicker core. The grip of my son is better as these are thicker. I have replaced his Laddie with MY FIRST. Regarding cutters: on a Steadler pencil cutter I had to just push a little and it worked. See attached pic.

Awesome pencils! I was hesitant to purchase these initially because they were so much more expensive than regular pencils, but my 3 year old was begging for pencils so she could practice her ABCs and our preschool teacher recommended these. These are the perfect shape for chubby little hands. She had a hard time holding a regular thin pencil and would get frustrated when it would slip out of her hands. These fit her perfectly and she's able to draw and write very comfortably. They also last forever. Even with her pressing hard, the lead never breaks. We bought this box over a year ago and are still on our second or third pencil since the lead never breaks. I can see this lasting forever.

I am a fabric hand cutter in a furniture upholstery plant and use pencils quite a lot in marking. I have found these pencils hold up well under daily use. The round beginner pencil by the same company does not have the same quality. The lead breaks easily in them and I use them up so rapidly. For whatever reason the lead in these pencils seem to be of a stronger quality and seem to mark darker. The triangular shape is a real plus when you use them daily.

Easier to grip, larger to help with writing skills, also easier for adults to grip for long periods of time writing ✍️

Good pencils for little and big people. However they are too thick for (most) pencil sharpeners, the shape doesn’t seem to fit well into the big hole of our sharpener. So I use a Swiss Army knife to town them. Which is kind of fun, I don’t mind it, but just so you know. If you have a fully adjustable electric sharpener it’s probably not an issue. I like the fact that they have no eraser, because my preschooler just chews them off. I’d buy these again.

As a retired first grade teacher, I highly recommend these three-sided pencils. The shape gently forces the child to hold the pencil correctly. Saves lots of tears and finger pain of griping too hard.

Works well. Good value. Exactly as described.

Good value, love that there is no eraser as kids just bite them off anyway! And in kindergarten I prefer they don't erase their work.

Great pencil to help first graders with their grip and fine motor skills.

Good stuff. Exactly what I want.

My daughter loves it. She won't do her homework in any other pencils.
