My 9yo dd does not hold her pencil with the tripod grip. Instead of using her pointer finger on top of the pencil, she puts her middle finger on top and her pointer down beside the pencil. I have tried to use a grip with her, but she complains about it and doesn't want to use the grip. She prefers to hold it the way described. I haven't forced it too much since I don't want to discourage her writing. But, it bothers me because I am afraid it will cause her problems.
Have any of you dealt with this or do you have any wisdom or advice to share? I would grestly appreciate it!!!!
Thanks so much!
Oh, part two is coming up, it is the pencil hold issue with my 4yo dd!
