Writing Bird - Arthritis Relief Aids

The Writing Bird is a unique solution to relieve the stress of writing for people with rheumatoid arthritis or neurological disorders. We found this product to be an ideal writing device for persons with limited hand control, dexterity or a weak grasp. It's also a perfect adaptive writing tool for individuals without thumb to fingertip pinch, or for someone with tremors that calm with weight or pressure applied.

The Writing Bird is an adaptive writing product that combines form and function to rest comfortably in your right or left hand. It slides easily along a writing surface. Gentle pressure on the tail allows pen to easily move without smearing ink.

The writing bird slides easily along a writing surface using upper arm strength. Only slight downward pressure is needed to write. Made of durable, frosted acrylic. May be used with either the right or left hand.

Writing BirdThe Writing Bird Features:

  • Made of durable, frosted acrylic
  • Pen is included; can be used with a standard ball point pen if desired or pencil
  • May be used in either the right or left hand
  • Lightweight and comfortable

My mother can't write without a 'bird'! Her writing with it is beautiful too.

I had high hopes for the Writing Bird! It looked exactly like what I was looking for, but it needs work. I suppose it depends on who you are buying for and what their individual needs are. Before you get stuck with this (it's not returnable from this vendor), you should know that it is not large enough for a normal-sized male hand which makes it awkward and uncomfortable. Because it is made of acrylic, it is heavier than you would expect. I bought this for my father who is recovering from a stroke and trying to write again. Because the pen is stationary, you need to lift the Bird and put it down so that it doesn't drag from letter to letter. If you are writing in script, this may not be a real issue, but for people who have a disability or are recovering, block letters are where they start! It was difficult for him to lift and move. Lastly, the opening for the pen or pencil is much too skinny! It only fits a stick pen or pencil -- for the price this space should be adjustable. Overall, I found this device much too heavy, too small and too rigid -- not enough choices available. Proceed with caution!
