A weighted pencil is heavier than a regular pencil and is designed to provide proprioceptive input in a child’s fingers and hands so he/she can respond accordingly. It is also an excellent way to increase pencil pressure without any effort from the child.
Proprioception is a person’s ability to be aware of his/her body movements and how he/she is moving in a given space. In handwriting, proprioception means the ability to be aware of and control the position of the hand in relation to the writing instrument. Children with autism often lack this skill, which is often the cause of poor handwriting.
The added weight of the pencil is meant to help a child with autism respond to the stimuli of the instrument and the paper and “react” sufficiently. Because the pencil is heavier, its presence is more obvious to the child as he/she holds and moves it around.
