[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a homeschooling family we love trying out new products that we can incorporate in our schooling. My kids were excited when these arrived and opened them immediately. We really wanted to like these. The colors are fun, the grip is nice, they come with extra erasers and lead, which is a plus. But, the lead breaks easily. They don't write smoothly. This leads to frustration with my kids, which is no good. With that being said, we would not purchase these at all.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Okay I used the pencils and just had to put my say in lol. I love how the lead is smooth. I dont know how to explain what im saying. it just writes so smooth. The only thing I didnt like was the erasers are very hard to the touch and seem small. but other than than i cant put them down.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids and I love these Bic Velocity Mechanical Pencils. They have a comfortable built in finger grip which is so helpful for my child that struggles with fine motor skills. The lead is much stronger than traditional mechanical pencil lead and the writing is very smooth. The pack even comes with extra lead and erasers. When we erase mistakes, they disappear cleanly without tearing the paper. My kids are more eager to write when using these bright colored pencils.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pencils are great! The lead is clean and not jumpy and the erasers are clean. The colors are great, very vibrant and they stand out in a back pack so they are easier to locate. The plastic cover on the eraser is helpful because it keeps the eraser from falling out and the lead from getting lost. The grips are great also as they allow you to hold the pencil comfortably for extended periods of time.

BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So my kids are back at school now and are enjoying their new colorful pencils to try for FREE. I have a 4th grader, 9th grader and 11th grader and they are really liking the bright colors and how well they write and so far they say that the lead doesn't seem to be breaking as easy as the cheap mechanical pencils normally do and its awesome that it came with extra lead, that's a big help with having to buy so many school supplies that's one less thing to have to worry about. The price is kinda expensive but considering that the lead doesn't break as easy it will probably save me money in the long run not having to buy as often.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Since getting my pencils I have not had to refill any pencils. As a college student that is impressive. I have run ink pens out in this amount of time and yet one pencil, without a refill, has outlasted them. The ease of the grip helps keep my hands from cramping, the thick lead allows me to keep clearer notes, and the color does keep me happy. While I have not chosen to use a different color, yet, I love being able to pick a color that lifts my mood. It helps on days when school work is the last thing you want to do.

BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils are my kids favorite

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids will only use mechanical pencils, it makes school work so much easier. We have tried almost every brand and they said they are the best they have used. They write smooth, erase easily and best of all you don't to sharpen them! These are a hit in our house.
