Lyra Groove 5ct PackLyra Groove jumbo triangular color pencils feature a new natural grip zone for improved ergonomic function. Off set guards for thumb, index and middle fingers support an optimal writing grip for children while drawing, writing or coloring. Available in a variety of colors with an extra break-proof lead.

The Groove was selected as the 2009 School and Personal Use Product of the year at the Frankfurt Paperworld show where it was recently introduced to great fanfare. An interesting extension to the large line of Lyra coloring pencils the Groove effortlessly shows children how to position thier fingers while learning to draw or write.

Lyra, now over 200 years old and based in Nürnburg, Germany is an important supplier of school supply pencils and other writing and art products in the German and Austrian markets. Lyra was aquired by the FILA Group in July 2008 and will complement FILA's existing school and art material products marketed in Italy and Europe under the Giotto name and in North America under the Dixon Ticonderoga and Prang brands.

We hope to add this item to our Pencils.com store in the near future. In the meantime here are a few of our coloring and jumbo pencil selections.
