DOODLE HOG Washable Crayons 36 Colors, Kids and Toddler Crayons, Watercolor, Non Toxic, 3 in 1, for Kids Ages 4-8

These are the best crayons ever! They are so much easier for my 20 month old granddaughter to use than regular crayons. The colors are amazingly vibrant and she is encouraged to color more than she ever did before. Her mother is an artist and graphic designer; she was blown away by the quality of this product. My daughter is in charge of the art department for her church and she is going to buy these for them to use. I was originally concerned that Baby Girl would twist the crayons and break them, but she hasn't done that at all. That is likely because her mother turns them up when she isn't looking;-) Also, she enjoys putting them in the container. They wash out of fabric and skin well....as you can see from the photo, her mother lets her color on the sofa.

I can not say enough good things about these crayons! I am an art teacher and these are so versatile! I teach a toddler art class on Monday's and we have been using these for the last week. The images attached show or party painting, we also used dab a dots to create balloons in our confetti background where we discussed different lines and colors. Pros: they glide on the paper so smoothly and are dark and vibrant. Even my littlest students don't have to exert much pressure to make a nice dark line. They also offer a the ability to be used as watercolors. My students drew on watercolor paper then we applied wet brushes to the paper (they were so excited to see the colors mix! ). You can also use a wet brush on the crayon itself and then apply to the paper.They also blend really well together. The crayons themselves have a lot of crayon in them. I included an image of one rolled all the way out. Cons: the caps have glitter on them so the kids thought they were glittery. That is the only negative I have.

I recently taught a women's class and the class members were asked to complete a campfire scene using these gel crayons. I don't have kids so I was concerned about how vibrant the colors would be--I needed this 16x20 campfire image they would draw on to be seen from quite a distance. I toyed with the idea of using acrylic pens--but they were too fine; wax crayons were too difficult for amateurs to get good results and then I found these NOYO Gel Crayons! Just from the description and reviews I knew these crayons could pull it off. The gel crayon colors are brilliant and clean--bright while all the way to deep black. I used watercolor paper for this campfire scene (which was 'pitted' rather than smooth--smooth would have been a better option) and the crayons went on like lipstick--very smooth, wide lines, filled in all the dimples; I thought the end result was terrific. Most class members wanted to know where I found the NOYO gel crayons. Kids and adults alike can use these NOYO gel crayons by hardly moving a finger.

I bought these to play with and they are great fun. They play nicely, better than crayons and just a bit thicker than children's oil pastels. When applied thinly, they "water out" nicely; but not so nicely when applied thickly. Also when applied thickly they leave some "gunk" behind on the paper and have trouble drying down. When applied very thickly, they do not dry down after even a day. I had to spray my watercolor sketch book doodlings with fixative so the colors would not shift and smear onto the facing pages. Regarding colors, they are fine, except for only one real red; no maroons, or coolish or warmish reds. It goes from the one red to definite pinks and definite oranges. I would buy this type of product again when I use these up, but would probably try to ascertain colors included more carefully. I do not regret this purchase.

These drawing sticks make beautiful, smooth, colorful marks and are really fun to draw with. They blend similarly to an oil stick, but are water-soluble like tempera. I mistakenly ordered them, thinking they would dry immediately. As drying time was crucial for the workshop I was giving, they didn't work out for my specific needs. Nonetheless, I was impressed with the cute packaging and nice product. My return request was approved promptly with no fuss, so I would still return to this seller and recommend this crayon as an interesting media that combines the creamy, blendable texture of oil stick with the water-soluble features of tempera.

These are a must have! When the girls starting coloring with these (ages 5 and 3) the adults were like are those markers? What are those? Then a group of us just started coloring with them. We all decided we needed our own set just because they glide so smooth and are vibrant in color. They're amazing! Also they are washable. Very easy to clean up. There were a couple of spots that ended up on our carpet and couch and they wiped clean with no effort. We are a huge fan of these and make coloring a lot of fun! Highly recommend

As a mom of two preschoolers, I was looking for a quality crayon to help my son who is not into coloring start utilizing crayons for coloring and writing to practice his grip and control with writing instruments. When reading the description and watching a video which was supposedly posted by an Amazon customer, I was convinced that these crayons were for us. They would cover all of our bases. So I ordered them. When they arrived with the new coloring books I had added to my cart. I say my toddlers down with the crayons and coloring books and let them try them out. The crayons definitely do everything that is stated in the description EXCEPT they are NOT washable. My kids have a white table that they sit at for meals, school work and crafts. We have used washable crayola crayons, paints and markers and washed them off with no problems. We now have stains on our table where these crayons were used. In closing these crayons are definitely fun but perhaps should be reserved for older children or at the very least ensure that your table is completely covered.

If your kiddo has a hard time coloring due to hand strength, these are amazing! My girl had little desire to color and I didn't understand it was because it was so difficult for her, until someone bought her these as a gift. She became much more willing because she could see results and color with ease. They are definitely messier than regular crayons and they're not great for detail, but the colors are vibrant and they just glide across the paper with little effort. I recommend them all the time to friends with kiddos who struggle to color or who are dysgraphic. We just love them!
