Grocery Grip

Most people with arthritis or other hand difficulties experience hand discomfort when carrying plastic grocery bags.

The Grocery Grip Bag Holder ends this pain by providing a neutral wrist position. A comfortable, padded 1 3/8" (35 mm) diameter handle and a strong, plastic-covered hook can hold several plastic grocery bag handles. It fits conveniently in a purse or pocket when not in use.

Save these toys for circle or quiet class time only. ,For more helpful ideas, see the article "Helping Fidgety Kids Sit Still" in the PlayPen.
