  • Secure Attachment: This system firmly fastens the weights, preventing unwanted shifting or instability while the user writes.
  • Sensory Input: Each individual weight is approximately 1.5 ounces, providing consistent proprioceptive and vestibular feedback to assist with sensory motor planning.
Is each individual weight precisely 1.5 ounces?

Yes, each individual weight component is approximately 1.5 ounces, providing consistent therapeutic input for sensory motor planning.

What is the primary benefit of these weights?

These weights are primarily designed to assist with sensory motor planning by providing crucial tactile feedback. They are especially beneficial for individuals experiencing difficulties with vestibular or proprioceptive processing.

Are the weights suitable for various writing instruments?

Yes, the Kinsman Pen & Pencil Weights are designed to be versatile. They use O-rings to secure onto various writing instruments, allowing users to customize the positioning anywhere along the pen or pencil.
