Jumbo USA Gold Natural Pencils are triangle-shaped so they’re easy to grip and are made from American cedar from sustained-yield forests. These oversized premium pencils are perfect for young children learning to write. Students can confidently write neatly and smoothly, knowing that superior-strength bonded graphite cores won’t break easily under pressure or jam-up pencil sharpeners. No. 2 HB lead is great for school or at home use. Latex-free erasers resist smudging.
