BFamily Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 The occupational therapist who works with DS3 has him using this for proper grip: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B009R2HZPK/ref=mp_s_a_1?qid=1352058126&sr=8-1&pi=SL75 There are other brands out there that are cheaper that I'm sure would work just as well.

Researcher Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 The Grotto grip is our favorite. The Claw, mentioned above, is also good. We just found it was a little cumbersome at times because it takes longer to put the fingers into it before writing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were pretty easy to use, helped a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nukeswife Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 My 7 year old uses these It's helped him to use a tripod grip. He was a quadpod boy before, which would be fine, but his writing is much more legible if he uses the tripod method. The quad would sometimes result in crossover of the thumb and stuff.
