The Mechanical Pencil

The Special Pencil

A mechanical pencil comes included in MissMancy’s Handwriting Starter Kit

I don’t know about you but I always love to write with a mechanical pencil!  The writing always seams to look neater!
When I introduce it to my kids for the first time I like to tell them it’s my “special pencil” that I’m letting them use…they all without exception pay extra careful attention to their handwriting!!

The mechanical pencil is great for kids who need to put less pressure on the paper when writing. It’s also a lot easier to erase.
Make sure you get a good quality mechanical with 0.5 or 0.7 mm lead (I personally like 0.5). I find that cheap mechanical pencils are lighter and don’t produce the same quality handwriting…and besides a good mechanical pencil looks so much more special!!
