Very happy with these pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter absolutely loves these pencils, and so do I. The pencil has a smooth grip which makes writing easy, and the lead is medium thickness (0.7mm) which allows for less lead breaking. The packages come with extra lead and extra erasers, which is sooo convenient. No more trips to the pencil sharpener at school! My child is a third grader and this pencil is excellent for those beginning to hone in on their penmanship skills. She loves to write with these pencils and I'm happy that they are of great quality. It's a win win for both of us. When I was younger, I used to write with the regular BIC mechanical pencils, as these new Velocity pencils outshine the old ones by far. They write just like a pen, but it's a pencil and is erasable! We are very happy with these pencils, and recommend them for students of all ages as well as anyone who likes to write.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids just started school this week and have already given their BICÆ VelocityÆ mechanical pencils a thorough workout between drawing, worksheets and general note taking. The girls are thrilled with the bright colors and LOVE that there are grips. They kept forgetting they had eraser caps, however, so those had to be removed (I like it myself--it keeps the eraser from getting all gritty in my purse). My youngest (9 y/o) likes that her lead doesn't break every time she tries to write or tear her paper--which was a major issue for her last year with another brand pencil and their 0.7 mm lead. Overall, we are impressed with the quality of these pencils. They may be a little pricier, but sometimes you just have to spend a little extra for quality.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids love Bic's Velocity Mechanical Pencils. They are easier when you are in a hurry and they like the cool colors. My youngest son gave one to his cousin so he could also have a cool" pencil like his. He was very excited to tell his cousins all about them. They are also inexpensive. #GotItFree #BICVelocity"

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've used so many brands when drawing, that I can tell you which mechanical pencils have which issues. These are a great versatile pencil for kids and adults. Very comfortable to write with. The grip is super and I love the small eraser. Great for line drawing characters because not only can you get dark lines, but light ones as well. Nice shading too. Here's an anime girl I recently did for a friend. I did the original line work with BIC Velocity pencil. So, its not just a writing tool. It is very multipurpose.

Son loves these pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son loves the BIC Velocity Mechanical pencils. The push down feature to release lead is easy to use and he also loves that they have a cap for the eraser to keep it in place. He hates traditional wood pencils so these pencils seem to work better for him since he is left handed. He also likes the different choice of colors.
