The perfect pencil grip is known as the tripod grasp. When child places the tip of the index finger and the thumb on the pencil, while stabilizing the shaft of the pencil with the help of the middle finger's lateral side. A tripod is formed surrounding the pencil that is why it is said tripod grasp. One of the simplest options is to give your child a triangular pencil.
