Watercolor Crayons with Brush, 15 Colors - Premium Quality Art Supplies for Kids

Out of all of my holiday shopping, this was the item that scared me the most! "What if they're broken? What if they look dull? What if they don't work? What if, what if, what if?"However, I just got it today and these are perfect! None of the crayons are broken, and the colors look very vivid! I tested just one and used my finger to smear a little water on. I could play with these all day!!! So pretty and easy!!!

worth every nickel

I sent this to my grand daughter she loves them.

Works perfectly but they are a little soft so kids need to be gentle while coloring or else they'll snap in half. They can still be used though.

While this is marketed for children, older people can use with decent, fun results. They are nicely pigmented, especially when compared to artist's loft water soluble wax pastels. The included brush I found to be way too soft once wet, so I used a different brush which made the experience better. The package left room for improvement, it's not sturdy, which is disappointing considering the brand. None of the crayons were broken, but having purchased Faber castell products in the past I expected more presentation wise. The crayons activate nicely with water, but I found dark grey not so easily moved. Overall I like the product and would recommend.

These are my favorite art supplies! I have been using these watercolor crayons (plus F-C's watercolor pencils) in my visual storytelling workshops for over a decade now. Workshop participants - from preschoolers to elders - are always wowed by how vibrant the colors are, how even a rookie painter can create powerful imagery. I instruct workshop participants to dip the tip of each watercolor crayon into a bowl of water (the longer you hold it there, the more the crayon softens, the less likely colors will streak) before drawing with it. Or, color with it like a crayon and then smudge your drawing with a moistened Viva paper towel. (Only this brand of paper towel hasn't torn the 140 lb watercolor paper I use.) The watercolor pencils are reserved for optional detail work. Above are three examples of "visual stories" painted with watercolor crayons and watercolor pencils by refugee children. P.S. I've read complaints about the packaging deteriorating quickly. If you (an adult) slip the plastic tray with crayons in and out of the cardboard container carefully, I haven't had any problems. I've used the same sets for a year or two and the packaging is still intact. I'd much rather be careful than pay more for more durable packaging!

I bought this along with 3 other watercolor pencil sets (Color Artsy, Leruna, and Corot...which seller called a different brand name for some odd reason),This set by Faber Caster that was safe for children 0-3 they said, and had the absolute best color production in depth and in change to a water color with water. but were not as easily manipulated.The packaging really was VERY poor. A flimsy cardboard and the crayons sitting in a VERY VERY flimsy piece of plastic and not secured in it, so that when I got it all the crayons where out, and had marked up the container they were to be seated in, so that the set looked already used! Though I am not saying it was, just that packaging resulted in loose crayons which are soft enough to leave residue behind where they touch, and they apparently bounced around. (HEY FABER CASTELL...just a simple small strip of cellophane over the crayons to keep them seated in the container would have worked. I really LIKED the crayons...but the carton they came in was so bad that it knocked my review down, as now I have to go back and find something to put them in!I am going to have to buy a separate container now, because once these crayons are out of the box, it would be risking have them get all broken up to put them back in, PLUS they were advertised for "children", and a child would have a hard time getting them back in this trashy box.The watercolor pencils all did about the same with Corot having a little better change to water color and a little deeper color. the Leruna had the least deep color and was not for children 0-3, and neither was the Corot and

I ordered these crayons to use with the paper that I just reviewed. I will be using these crayons to make my 2024 Christmas cards. They're gonna look great, and I'm anxious to use them.

Estos colores los compre para un regalo y mi sobrino junto con un juego de plumas para dibujar.

Son de excelente calidad.... Muy útiles
