[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think these pencils are wonderful, my two daughters absolutly loved them. They enjoyed the bright colors, but more so how strong the lead was and how durable the pencil felt. I would be purchasing these again for sure!!!

Love these mechanical pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The kids and I have been able to try these great mechanical pencils. I know what you're thinking...they're all the same. I thought that too but these are pretty darn spiffy. The encasing is a nice solid plastic with a soft rubber finger placement, where the lead comes out is metal, and instead of the eraser being all lose it has a plastic cap for protection and to prevent it from falling off and getting lost. When it comes to writing it is smooth and consistent and thicker lead than most so it doesn't break as easy. And to add another plus to it...there is a nice "set" of extra eraser heads and lead to go along with it! The only downside is that they are on the pricey side...#BICVelocity and #GotItFree

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think the BIC Velocity pencils are great for all ages. My kids love that they come in different colors so they know which one is their pencils. The wider grip makes them easy for the younger kids to use. The older kids like the "cool" design. The fact that they are #2 lead means they can use them on tests as well. I love that they erase cleanly so their homework isn't covered in a grey mess. I've even tried them out myself since I write a lot & the ease of use is great. An all around great pencil for everyone!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Received these for my oldest son as he does not like regular pencils, he insists on mechanical pencils. When I received them & showed them he proceeded to confiscate them all & prep his stuff for school.

Goodbye Calloused Finger

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter loves to draw and write. BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils come in handy because it leaves out the need to sharpen the pencils every so often. Now, because of the plastic barrel, I was afraid that it will make my daughter's fingers hurt after long hours of writing and/or drawing. Good thing this mechanical pencil comes with soft rubber-like grip handle. This is of great help especially to those who loves to write. It keeps your fingers from developing callouses.

BIC® Velocity® Mechanical Pencils are right on point!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The BIC® Velocity® Mechanical Pencils are definitely one of the better mechanical pencils I have used.
For starters, the lead writes smooth and does not break easily. So many other mechanical pencils the lead is super thin and breaks easily. Not with the BIC® Velocity® Mechanical Pencils. I have been using it for at least 2 weeks now, and the lead has not broken once. The lead writes dark and super smooth.
The eraser works! With so many pencils, the erasers are cheap and never fully erase. I haven't found this to be true with the BIC® Velocity® Mechanical Pencils. It erases clean.
Another plus is the rubber grip, which makes it so much easier & more comfortable to write with. The BIC® Velocity® Mechanical Pencils actually have the look of a pen, but it's not.
And finally - the colors! I love color and the personal flair it adds.
BIC® Velocity® Mechanical Pencils is definitely a hit in this family
