Schneider light up pressure pen - pen for children with Dyspraxia, Dysgraphia, Dyslexia, SPD and for children who press too hard or too lightly when they write. For the Speed up! handwriting programme by Lois Addy (Green/Deep petrol blue/grey)

just received this pen but can't get it to work. The empty cartridge fits in the pen fine. But the filled cartridge seems longer and won't fit in the pen. Is the second cartridge suppose to be longer than the empty one already in the pen?Feeling disappointed as it took a while to receive it and its not cheap. May have to return. Any help appreciated

This is a great concept, but I was rather disappointed with the actual product. Having worked at getting my daughter to not press too hard when she's writing, we had to press very hard to make the light come on. I'm now looking for a way round this.

Has helped a couple of students notice when they are pressing too hard. Expensive for a pen. The pressure needed seems to be a little variable so pair with other activities if teaching children about pressure.

great pens for kids who struggle to write,

Great for my DD who can now write very neatly.

Only worked for a few seconds. Expensive mistake!

This pen was very expensive but was recommended in the speed up programme. It was disappointing to find that the refills had to be bought separately. (obviously the point is that if the children press too hard the light comes on, I mention this due to the slightly silly review by Celine above) however the four I bought are still going strong. I'm giving three stars due to the refill issue and price. I'm going to see if I can get a similar thing cheaper, we are on a limited budget.
