Drawing with cord - increased mobility

We are very excited about drawing with cord.
We use it to stimulate an efficient and stable pencil grip in children who have difficulty with this. Particularly children with increased mobility, insufficient strength and/or low tone.
We put an anatomically shaped triangular grip on the pen so that they have more structure and grip. Children like it. Especially children who do not like to draw or color.
Because you have to push hard to push the rope through, you also improve the stability and strength of your writing fingers.
