When it comes to pencils, none are more comfortable to hold than Lyra Groove. This is our favourite graphite pencil here at Craft4Kids.
This is the graphite version of the Lyra Groove (i.e. it is a “lead pencil” for those that went through school in the 80s and 90s!). The Groove is an ergonomic, 10mm, triangular pencil. It allows a natural grip with indentations for the thumb, index and middle fingers, to support optimal grip even after sharpening. There is extra break resistance in the lead (which is 4.25mm).
Suitable for both left and right handers.
The pencil includes a space for a child’s name to be written. Paperworld in Europe awarded the Lyra Groove Pencils their Product of the Year for School and Personal Use. Lyra Groove graphite pencils are designed and made in Germany.
Lyra has been around since 1806, and they know how to make the best quality pencils, markers and crayons.
Looking for a sharpener? Either the Lyra Twin Hole Wooden Sharpener or Lyra Groove 2-hole Sharpener (especially made to match the Groove pencil’s style) is suitable for this pencil.

Fantastic start for pencil control
Fantastic for kids to draw with, do mazes, learn to write etc. Comfortable and encourages correct grip. Great quality and worth every cent!
