A. As your child starts to develop more control over their shoulder and arm muscles, they will move on to hold a pencil with their fingers. ... A child develops this grasp typically around 2 – 3 years old. The child will continue to use whole arm movements to scribble with this grasp.By 5 or 6 years of age, children's finger muscles are more developed and strong enough to grip a pencil correctly, using only three-fingers—their thumb, index, and middle finger
