Paper Mate Handwriting Triangular Mechanical Pencil Set with Lead & Eraser Refills, 1.3 mm | Pencils for Kids in Fun Barrel Colors, 5 Count

My five year old loves it and so do I. Its our most preferred pencil.

Lo utilizo mucho y lo he comprado varias veces ,lo uso para hacer anotaciones en partituras, tambien he tenido que regalar muchos porque se marca muy bien en el papel y la mayoría que lo probó se quedaron con las ganas de quedárselo.

These pencils are good for all ages. I like the thickness of the lead and that they are not easy to break. The colours are fantastic and the erasers work well. Comes with additional leads also.

Pros: I grabbed these Paper Mate pencils because they were on sale, and now that my daughter is a bit older and moving into her later elementary school years, she is transitioning from wooden pencils to lead pencils. I did not want to invest in anything too expensive because honestly, she tends to lose pencils before we even get to the point of needing a refill. These Paper Mate pencils turned out to be a great choice for that stage. They are beginner friendly with a thicker 1.3mm lead that is much more forgiving for little hands still building control. The barrel colors are fun and bright, and my daughter loves all of them, though pink is still her favorite of course. Each pack also comes with an extra lead refill case, so we are set for a while before needing more. At only $3.50 at the time I bought them, it felt like such a steal for 5 pencils plus refills. For anyone with a young writer transitioning from wood pencils, Paper Mate really nailed the design here, from the triangular grip to the bold lead thickness. Cons: The only real downside is the eraser quality on these Paper Mate pencils. They work, but they are not as strong as I would like for a kid who erases a lot while learning. I still keep a separate set of Pentel high polymer erasers on hand for that reason, since those tend to outperform the erasers that come attached to most pencils, Paper Mate included.

I love writing with these pencils. They come in such beautiful colours too. The package arrived extremely quickly!

These pencils are great for carpenters
