DS just bashes felt tips on the point and the point goes into the pen... no more felt tip pen.
We mainly use coloured pencils (the only damage there is dropping them on the floor, and though the unbreakable ones are NOT unbreakable, they aren't too bad - and you can buy replacements for DS' ergosoft ones so that's OK).
But DD I think would like to use felt tips if they didn't get destroyed.
They are 4 and 6 by the way so not fancy adult ones, and both of them struggle a bit with pencil grip so we've got them triangular ones in the past.
