I wanted to share the Stubby Pencil Studio, a great on-line resource for eco friendly drawing and art supplies.  They carry Crayon Rocks discount adobe photoshop cs4 for mac acrobat 9 pro buy software firmware downloads solidworks teachers discount which we use in the office and have often recommended to parents for home use.  The unique shape of the crayons promotes a mature pencil grasp.  They have a variety of triangular shaped pencils which also help promote a mature pencil grip, including Jumbo Triangular Color EcoPencils, which at just 5" long, fit well into small hands.  I also like their Color 'n Kids cards that offer a simple design with a word to trace.  A great way to encourage your child to make their own thank-you or other greeting cards.
