Description:

With a rich heritage, and origins dating back to 1795, the Dixon Ticonderoga Company throughout history has made its mark through quality, integrity, respect and perseverance. Today Dixon Ticonderoga continues to make its mark manufacturing and marketing writing instruments, art supplies and tools for self expression. You'll always remember your first Ticonderoga. The larger round size (13/32 Inches) and the smooth outer casing make it easier for little hands to hold. Preferred by teachers, My First Ticonderoga assists children in the early stages of their writing development skills. The thick number 2 graphite core is pre-sharpened for added convenience and features an extra large, latex-free eraser for clean, smudge-free erasing. The pencil finish contains Microban anti-microbial protection to inhibit the growth of odor and stain causing bacteria on the pencil and is PMA certified non-toxic. More than a writing and art products company, Dixon Ticonderoga empowers people to take conscious and subliminal thoughts, facts, ideas and dreams, and preserve them using tools that are simply extensions of themselves.

5Great for preK-K!Nov 29, 2009
By Lauren M. Colliver
These pencils are a great width for little hands. And the erasers are top notch! They don't leave that yucky residue of cheap erasers. And they come already presharpened! I just need to find a pencil sharpener that is wide enough to use on them.

This pencil is great and definitely helps my son hold his pencil correctly. I too need to find a sharpener that it will fit in.

1Great except for the Microban!Aug 31, 2011
By gamom
I love these pencils but I hate that they are treated with Microban. I prefer that items my children are prone to stick in their mouths not be laden with chemicals. Most people think that microban kills germs and therefore will protect against the spread of disease. This is NOT true. From the microban website...

"Microban® antimicrobial product protection is engineered to protect products from bacteria, mold and in some cases algae that can cause stains, odors and product deterioration. Microban protection is not designed to protect users from disease causing microorganisms. ... Microban product protection inhibits the growth of microorganisms that can cause stains, odors and product degradation."

Considering the shelf life on a pencil in my house is a couple months or less, is it really necessary to protect it from such things that are not likely to occur in its short lifetime? I prefer regular old pencils sans the useless chemicals. So as much as I love these pencils I will not be buying anymore because of the Microban.

5Easy to Hold PencilJul 30, 2010
By Penny Names
A friend gave my mom a box of these for her birthday. She is in her 90's and her hands are badly arthritic. She can use them and she loves them! I started using them myself and found them easy on the hands and great for puzzles. It comes with a nice eraser as well. I went out bought a package for myself at Staples which comes with an eraser and a sharpener. You're going to need a sharpener with a bigger hole than the average pencil.

3Needs replaceable eraserApr 20, 2012
By Mommyoftween
Little hands erase all of the time and before we know it the eraser is gone on the pencil and we have all of these huge pencils not getting used. Literally a whole flower pot, full of wood and lead not getting used. We do use the regular pink eraser on the side, but it would be nice if Ticonderoga would make erasers to fit on the end of the My First.
