As crayons are usually the first writing tool that a child will use, Barbara Lee DaBoll set about designing Crayon Rocks after being inspired by Occupational Therapist Jan Olsen, who explained the importance of developing the tripod grip at an early age. Made from non-toxic soy wax and other natural waxes including bee's, The colours are derived from minerals and the filler, which gives the crayon body is ground natural limestone, Crayon Rocks apply to page very easily, meaning no hard pressing on the page which results in tired fingers. You can teach your child the tripod grip by watching this clip, which uses a song to help them remember.
Crayon Rocks are available online at Tribe
interesting, cute & ergonomic!
