[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter is using these pencils for her drawings and loves them. She says the grip is comfortable to hold and the line is smooth. We will continue using these pencils.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pencils are super smooth, easy to write and draw with. They don't break and erase very well. Kids are happy drawing and writing. They last so long. A pack will last you for a super long time. One pencil is still going and going

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are great pencils!!! I love the fact that they come with extra lead and erasers. They write pretty dark and erase easily. The best part of course is not having to use a pencil sharpener! I've always been a fan of Bic products!

Mechanical versus wooden
on August 17, 2016

from Mount Sterling, KY
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I always have had to buy both mechanical and traditional wooden pencils for my boys. My oldest enjoys mechanical but my youngest hated them. These he really likes. They don't scratch and squeak like the traditional mechanical pencils do. The writing is darker and doesn't require redoing it or going over it multiple times. The eraser is strongly made and erases well. The grip on the pencils make them very comfortable for those long days of writing reports and so on. We were very pleased with these pencils and felt they were quite a nice package with the extra lead and so on.

Love BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love these BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils! They are super comfy to grip, the lead is soft enough but not too soft, and they write almost like a ballpoint pen with the benefit of being erasable. My kids and I are really enjoying using these pencils for homework, grocery lists, etc.

First day of school
on August 17, 2016
Posted by: twinhousetoo
from Bluefield, VA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My children are home from their first day of school and I asked what they thought of the new Bic Velocity pencils. They both said that the pencils were wonderful and would give them a 10/10. They said the pencils seemed stronger than other mechanical pencils, my daughter said, I used it the whole day and the lead didn't break once! Other pencil leads always break". The only negative comment they had was that the erasers were not as great. They said the erasers smudged/smeared when using them. However

BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils: a big hit from the beginnin
on August 17, 2016

from Portland, OR
[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!
