An apparatus to secure a marking implement to a user's digit, includes a mounting body with a first arcuate channel extending along a longitudinal length of the mounting body. The first arcuate channel is dimensioned to receive the digit of the user. A second arcuate channel extends along the longitudinal length of the mounting body and is dimensioned to receive a shaft of the marking implement. A free end first strap is threadingly received through the mounting body to form a finger loop to secure the user's digit within the first arcuate channel. A free end of a second strap is threadingly received through the mounting body to form an implement loop to secure the marking implement in the second arcuate channel.

A tactual finger grip device and method provides increased tactual and visual sensory awareness of finger pressure and alignment especially for the left-handed user. The grip device provides a conically shaped sleeve of resilient material for inserting and adjustably securing a hand-held implement, such as a writing implement. A plurality of raised surface projections circumferentially positioned about the grip device outer surface provide tactual friction with a user's fingers, enabling user tactile sensory awareness, causing the user to adaptably minimize the tactual friction by conforming fingers and hand to natural placement, when the user grasps the sleeve secured to the hand-held implement. The device provides visual indicia for the forefinger, index finger, and thumb placement forming a natural hand position. Alternatively, the raised surface projections positioned about the inner surface create tactual friction or pressure between the device and a wearer's received finger when pressure is applied to a surface.

The invention refers to a pen with a shaft, a gripping zone, and a measuring device having a sensor, the measuring device measuring a force acting on the gripping zone. According to the invention, a cover is provided in the area of the gripping zone, said cover covering the measuring device on the outside.

A combination glove and marking device where the marking device is built into the forefinger portion of a glove and the applicator tip extends through an aperture located at the tip of the forefinger of the glove so that a user can mark an item such as a bingo card by simply pressing down with his or her forefinger. In an alternate embodiment, the marking device can be attached to the user's finger by one or more straps. The marking device includes an ink reservoir that is refillable by the user.

An assistive device is provided to promote the development or recovery of writing and drawing capabilities of a user. The device includes an elongated body having an outer surface and an inner channel for insertion of a writing instrument; a first positioning part forming a loop extending from the outer surface of the elongated body through which a thumb of a user may be inserted; a second positioning part forming a loop extending from the outer surface of the elongated body through which an index finger of a user may be inserted; and a third positioning part forming a loop extending from the outer surface of the elongated body through which a middle finger of a user may be inserted, wherein the first, second, and third positioning parts are arranged such that a user's thumb, index finger, and middle finger form a tripod grasp about the elongated body.
