Summary
The goal of this study is to evaluate Grip'n'Play, a set of tablet games controlled with the SensoGrip pen, which provides visual feedback on grip and writing pressure. The games are designed to encourage preschool and early school-age children to gain experience using a pen and to practice pressure control in a playful way.
The main questions this study aims to answer are:
* Are the Grip'n'Play games technically reliable and easy to use?
* Do children enjoy and accept the games?
* Are children motivated to use the games?
* Do children use the games regularly compared with a handwriting practice workbook?
Participants will:
* Use both, the Grip'n'Play game, and a practice workbook for handwriting-related activities.
* Complete the activities over the study period.
* Provide information about their experience, motivation, and use of the activities through study assessments conducted by the research team.
