The term “pencil case” (derived from the Latin penna, meaning feather or quill) has a long and interesting history. A pencil box is a small, convenient container designed to store various stationery items—primarily pencils and pens, as well as erasers, rulers, and markers.
Today, a pencil case is an absolute must-have in any student’s backpack or school bag. While it is difficult to say exactly how old this everyday object is, creating one with your own hands is a fun and highly rewarding creative activity!
