I didn’t think to check it at our school’s open house, but I recall elementary school pencil sharpeners always seemed jacked up. If the whole shebang wasn’t broken, it would grind off center so the pencil was sharp but somehow, the lead wasn’t. Prevent the frustration of the sharpened-but-not-writing pencil with the Gummy Bear Eraser/Sharpener. Think of these gummies as the all-in-one pencil accessory: it sharpens, it erases and at $2.50 each at See Jane Work, you could pick up a few spares.
