BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils: a big hit from the beginnin

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My teens and even us adults are more than impressed by the BIC Velocity Mechanical pencils! This is my updated review after giving them, and us, some extra time to use them throughout the summer before school starts. My 15 year old very particular daughter has been using them nonstop during summer doing her Advanced Summer English assignment. She?s also been using them to study for Spanish for the upcoming year, and her drivers permit test. She uses the BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils to make note cards for each subject to study. They have become extremely helpful in encouraging her to be on task. My 13 year old son has had occupational issues and fine motor skill issues all his life. Handwriting has been a struggle for him and much more frustration than fun. He absolutely loves these pencils and has been using them to practice his writing skills. He's been writing short stories at home about things he enjoys l, or fun things we?ve done over the summer. He has also been using them in Occupational Therapy as well. The vibrant choice of colors excites them as well as the fine darker lead which helps make their writing more crisp and clear. This is especially helpful for my son given his challenges with handwriting. The soft grip is exceptionally helpful for my son and even my daughter, which provides a more comfortable grip. No more need to sharpen a pencil, and refilling lead and erasers is a breeze. The BIC Velocity Mechanical pencils have been a life saver for us! These pencils have helped pull my kids away from their electronics and get their minds back into school ahead of time. Which as a parent that's a major achievement! They are an amazing learning tool for a variety of age ranges. They help in engaging children of all ages so they can be more passionate about writing. They have aided in sparking a passion for writing in our home. These would be an amazing tool in not only an educational school environment, but also those used to help children learn the skills to succeed in improving their handwriting for school. All of us as a family feel the BIC Velocity Mechanical pencils surpass the average mechanical pencil, and we highly recommend that families give them a try this year during school. The only letdown is that the erasers are not as strong as they could be. My kids prefer to use different erasers. That doesn't discourage me from giving 5 stars because regardless of this they are an amazing mechanical pencil and completely worth the purchase!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter loves using mechanical pencils. So we have tried a lot of different brands but Bic Velocity is her favorite brand. She loves how they write and how well they feel in her hand. So she is super happy to have them.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids hate homework...I think that is a prerequisite of being a tween" but they seem to hate it a bit less with their new BICÆ VelocityÆ Mechanical Pencils. The true test will be when school officially starts up again

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Who doesn't love the click, click, click of a mechanical pencil? I know I sure love them! From the bright colors (which makes Monday a little better) to the smooth lead, BIC Velocity has it all. You can't go wrong with these pencils. They are so awesome they even sprout legs a sneak away with friends, and kids! ;)

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] #GotItFree #BICVelocity I absolutely love these mechanical pencils and so do my kids. I was kinda skeptical at first thinking that they were the same as any other mechanical pencil, but they're not. We were able to draw and shade in pictures without the lead breaking over and over again. The eraser erased cleanly without leaving black marks on the paper. Plus, they are #2 pencils so when my kids go back to school they can use them. No pencil grip required it already has one. Way to go BIC!

Great with the exception...

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these pencils. In fact, I had a difficult time sharing them with others. The only thing I have an issue with is when I am erasing, the mechanism for advancing the lead seems to be sensitive". Not sure how else to better explain it. I have not noticed that problem with other mechanical pencils. Other than that
