The Kinsman Squiggle Wiggle Writer is designed primarily to assist users in developing fine motor skills and encouraging an improved grasping technique.
It provides therapeutic benefits by:
- Delivering tactile sensory input through its battery-operated vibration mechanism.
- Stimulating creativity by turning straight lines into loops, circles, or curves based on the pen’s proximity to the surface.
- Being ideal for use in therapeutic or educational settings focused on fine motor development and sensory integration.
Important Note: This product is not recommended for individuals who are tactile defensive.
What type of battery does the Squiggle Wiggle Writer™ require?

Instead of straight lines, the vibration mechanism naturally transforms them into:
- Loops
- Circles
- Curves
The specific variation in shape is determined by the user’s proximity to the writing surface, encouraging controlled movement. This tool is valuable for providing tactile sensory input and aiding in the development of proper grasping technique.
Does the design of the pen promote a comfortable grip?
The Squiggle Wiggle Writer™ is designed to encourage grasp.

- Improves Grasp and Coordination: The vibration delivers crucial tactile sensory input, which actively encourages the user to develop a better, functional grasp on the writing instrument.
- Creates Dynamic Lines: The mechanism alters the mark made on the paper, converting straight lines into unique loops, circles, or curves. The specific shape depends on how closely the pen is held to the writing surface.
This makes it an effective tool for therapeutic or educational settings focused on fine motor skill development and sensory integration.
