The “crayon rockets” are durable and reflect natural durability of most standard crayons.

Note: To fit, it requires twisting while pushing in a standard sized crayon. Meant for a tight fit to prevent slipping off while coloring. Ideal use is, once child is proficient with medium sized washable markers they should now use standard crayons with this gripper, placing thumb onto the large heart in the back if it, with two fingers ( index and middle) covering rocket’s face so Mr. Rocket “goes to sleep” while coloring 🙂👍.

Writing practice:

Best to start with coloring small to medium sized circle shapes ( no large shapes yet until grip is no longer needed).
