Abstract

A writing implement that includes an elastomeric hand exerciser object and integral amusement device. The elastomeric exerciser, preferably a shaped ball, has a diameter that allows the ball to fit between fingers and a palm of a closed hand of a user such that manual gripping and releasing of the ball exercises hand, finger and forearm muscles/ligaments of the user and thereby diminishes repetitive stress states of muscles/ligaments of the hand, fingers and forearm. The shaped ball is secured to one end of a transparent barrel that has a writing implement secured to the other end. An amusement device is positioned within the transparent barrel.
