I found these pencils recently, and they are awesome! Triangular shaped to assist with adaptive grasp for handwriting. No need for additional grips to add on to the pencils. They also have a thicker lead so they don’t break as easily as other mechanical pencil leads!
I haven’t read this one yet, but it came recommended to me by one of the families I am currently working with. I flipped through their copy briefly, and it looks like it contains some very good information, especially for first time parents!

Hey everyone! This book does an awesome job of explaining why we therapists care so much about infant motor skill development! It is a good resource we can use with parents to help them see why babies go through the motor milestones.
Great item for fine motor and bilateral coordination skills! Durable, and easy to use! A great beginning lacing toy for toddlers to practice using both hands to play at the same time!
These Crayon Rocks are great for encouraging kids to use their fingertips and thumb to grasp the crayons, and practice their Fine Motor skills! (Not for use with kids under 3 due to choking hazard!)
