Finger Spacer Ruler – A Handy Tool for Word Spacing Success! ✨✏️

The Finger Spacer Ruler is a clever and compact writing aid designed to help children who struggle with word spacing, spatial awareness, and layout in their workbooks. Measuring just 8cm long, this mini ruler features a playful finger pointer that sticks out from the top, acting as a physical guide children can slide along the page as they write. It’s the perfect visual and tactile reminder to leave “finger spaces” between words—without needing to use their actual finger!

Why OTs Recommend It:

This simple but effective tool supports key handwriting and planning skills, especially for children with:

📏 Poor spatial awareness – Helps with judging distance and spacing between words and letters.
🧠 Planning difficulties – Encourages children to think ahead and organise their writing more clearly across the page.
✋ Inconsistent word spacing – Promotes consistent, readable writing by providing a concrete spacing reference.
🌈 Sensory feedback – Sliding the spacer offers gentle proprioceptive input to fingers, reinforcing motor planning and attention.

Perfect For:

Children learning to write
Kids with dysgraphia or other handwriting challenges
Teachers and OTs looking for an easy classroom or therapy tool

🎨 Available in fun, kid-friendly colours, the Finger Spacer Ruler makes writing neater, less stressful, and more enjoyable—whether at school, in therapy, or during homework.
