Best Kids' Colored Pencils

Crayola Colored Pencils, 50 Count, Adult Coloring
While parents and teachers never want to discourage big and bold art, colored pencils are an ideal tool for children to use to satisfy their urge to draw smaller, intricate shapes. They can carefully fill in the blotchy markings of a calico kitten or precisely form each blade of grass--maybe trying a combination of yellow-green, pine, and jade. Enter your model number to make sure this fits.
Reviews
"Crayola Colored Pencils are excellent. Coloring is a breeze - I can layer colors, outline, shade, make the colors as bright or as muted as want."
"But price alone is not the determinant factor here: if a colored pencil is cheap but performs poorly, then there is no point in picking it up. But what I quickly discovered with these Crayola pencils is that not only are they inexpensive (they break down to only about 20 cents per pencil, compared to anywhere from $1 to $4 per pencil for the more expensive brands), but they perform exceptionally well, to boot. The pencils have a generally good laydown of color, with the caveat of the few colors that don't work well (true also of my most expensive colored pencils, I must say). Are these pencils as good as the best Swiss, French, and German colored pencils?"
"I thought 50 colors are plenty, but once you start using them, you do feel like you could use 100 colors..."
"Almost half of my arrived outside of the box with the "leads" broken completely off."
"These are the colored pencils I take on trips with me and am willing to share with kids (I'm pretty stingy with my Prismacolor and Derwent sets)."
"We purchased one set for my 6 year old 1st grade home-schooler and my younger two liked them so much they quit using their crayons so I just purchased a second set."
"I love this set of pencils!"
"These are good pencils."

Reviews
"But my 12 yr old daughter enjoys using them with the adult coloring books that have larger open areas."
"Great for shading, just press harder for darker areas or go over and over."
"She does not understand how anyone could be dissatisfied with these or what kind of deliberate force would be necessary to break the lead inside the barrel as a previous reviewer commented. My mom is in the nursing home and coloring is great therapy for her. They are sort of a mix between a colored pencil and a crayon in that they have a very slight crayon-type finish. My mom has recently rediscovered the joy of coloring and find these pencils perfect for that purpose. The size of lead is durable but also small enough to make a fine line."
"These are more like a cross between a colored pencil and a crayon."
"Also one color I have to have tape on the twist part or it screws itself down when I color."
"I would love to have some metallic and neon colors available."
"Not recommended if you are coloring large areas - I use gel pens or crayons for that - by great for tight spaces."
"I just dip a bit in water shake excess off and it softens pencil for easier coloring."

Reviews
"leads a little harder than Prismacolor Premier colored pencils but once I got used to the harder feeling, I will never go back to because of their quality hand tanked and I've wasted so much for broken leads and split casings."
"I've bought this 60 set POLYCHROMOS tin through some other online store @ decent price plus 6 additional colors in open stock (Burnt carmine, Alizarin crimson, dark flesh, light flesh, cinnamon and copper) .Actually i tempted to buy 120 color set but many castoffs or near identical colors you can't differentiate in 120 set .so this 66 colors are more than enough for me. Come back to red's this Faber castell polychromos have the widest range of reds among all the artist grade color pencils even better than prisma.for example this dark red put prismacolor's crimson red in to shame also red violet, magenta, scarlet, madder all are gorgeous indeed true colors, However prismacolor's Tuscan red is unique brownish red is better than polychromos burnt carmine. 8.it's more value for money than prisma actually because of this pencils sturdiness in lead it will not wear out so easily, so it's 3 times more lifetime than prismacolor.but price wise its expensive than prismacolor(132 prisma set sold for 97$some time back compare to 96$ polychromos 60 set). Overall it's very very high quality color pencils with marvelous deep color application suitable for artist to amateur(i personally advise don't waste this pencils for adult coloring etc because for adult coloring plenty of cheap color pencils will give you same result) this pencils are meant for professionals or semi pro.This is the treasure from Faber castell."
"That said, I do still love my prismas for the vibrancy. They have great pigment, lay down smooth color, blend and layer beautifully. Still very happy playing with my Polys!"
"While it took me a little while to get used to the hardness of these pencils compared to Prismas, I like that I can layer these over and over again without wax bloom. Although it takes me longer to put color down compared to softer pencils (patience!"
"Luxury pencils all the way."
"Not one lead was broken when they arrived (a set of 60), whereas in the smaller set of 24 Prismas that I bought, several arrived broken."
"I've attached a current work in progress and I see a difference in how vibrant they are."

Reviews
"I've taken out 12 different pencils in various shades to make test swatches... Each swatch has a sample of a light touch and a harder touch... When I pressed down for the harder touch, the pencils did not break..."
"When I first started I went to the craft store and dropped a butt load of money on a big case with lots of colors and different types of pencils. I quickly realized that the pencils broke constantly during sharpening, the color pallet wasn't extensive, and all told I really got ripped off."
"The pack has 72 different colors, multiple shades of the colors, I am beyond excited about them."
"Be it colouring books to drawing, I find that having several sets of art pencils is much better than one. Admittedly the Marco's were cheaper and slightly better, these like I said are more vibrant and a must have for any set of pencil art."
"The wood seems to be of acceptable quality, but the core felt like it would break if I put too much pressure on it when coloring."
"They are waxy and the colors even when applied with a lot of force are very light."

Reviews
"If it is more expensive than $19 or $20, you may want to hold out and see if the price drops over the next few days."
"I ordered another and with the quickness my little man had his case and was rockin it at summer camp. I let him take it because we are working on his ability to take care of things and it's a creative tool, plus I'm sure some of the other kids would likely see how cool it is and want one too, thus spreading my desire to get kids away from electronics and doing something creative. After the first week there is a slight tear on one of the corners, but guess what; it's only the decorative outter layer! Each item has a spot and they are secured tightly so they don't fall out while the case is closed."
"I'm not sure if the case included a sharpener, but it should."
"The sturdy, attractive case, provides good storage for the multitude of crayons, colored pencils, etc."
"She treats the set almost like a doctor, as she carefully selects colors, uses them on her drawings, and takes care to return each marker to its proper place."
"My daughter opened it up on Christmas morning and stared in awe, telling us about the things she plans on coloring and drawing."
"He is enjoying it and used it to draw pictures to put in with all of his Christmas Thank-You notes."
"My seven year old LOVES this set.., she loves the variety and she's in love with the colourful exterior of the case.....and I love that there is a space for everything, so this keeps all the pieces orgamized and when she's finished colouring, we close the case and the mess goes away."

Best Kids' Art Paints

Sakura XNCW-24N, 24 Assorted Watercolors Field Sketch Set with Brush
Koi water colors field sketch set with brush.
Reviews
"Will always travel with this set so I can do what I love anywhere."
"Regarding the color quality, I think it's fair to say it is of inferior quality than a Windsor and Newton "professional" grade watercolor paintbox. I have found the lighter colors grainy and all the colors just a bit too transparent. Until you are willing to splurge $$ for professional watercolor, the quality of this set is more than adequate for everyday sketches and painting exercises."
"The colors were described as pigmented and I would agree with that. The palette itself its a fairly study plastic palette. And it is possible to store the included water pen inside the palette if you keep the little black stopper (seen in the open palette photo) to hold the water in the tube. Unless of course your destination has a water source or you carry water with you. I will say that in the future I plan to invest in a palette that have removable paint pans. The only downfall of this palette is that once the pans on my most used colors are empty, I will either attempt to fill with tube paint or have to buy a new palette altogether. Given that this palette is so affordable, I certainly wouldn't be opposed to buying a new palette, but it would seem pretty wasteful."
"I bought this for my trip to canada, it was very light and portable and the paints are really good quality for the price!"
"Here are the colors: Chinese White. Lemon Yellow. Aureoline Hue. Permanent Yellow Deep. Permanent Orange. Jaune Brilliant. Vermillion Hue. Cadmium Red Hue. Crimson Lake. Quinacridone Rose. Purple. Cobalt Blue Hue. Cerulean Blue. Ultramarine. Prussian Blue. Yellow Green. Viridian Hue. Permanent Green Deep. Olive Green. Yellow Ochre. Light Red. Burnt Umber. Payne's Grey. Ivory Black."
"Size makes it not only nice for trips, hiking, and quick set up and clean up at HOME. 2 Beautiful vivid colors with great texture and easy clean up. Only water needed is in the brush and lasts forever depending on size of art paper; quick cleaning as you change colors. I am now in hospice after a very active life, and am now making my very own greeting cards, and busy beyond belief!"

Reviews
"For those of you thinking of teaching this to your kids, a rule of thumb. that will help is to have the child hold the scissors in front of their tummy, and move the. paper, not the scissors."
"The scissors are really safe, almost too safe because they are completely made out of plastic so they don't cut well, they just kind of rip the paper."
"This is the perfect scissors for my daughter to start with!"
"The best part is that she can play with the cut outs afterwards- puzzles, pretend foood, cake decorating, etc."
"Great product for preschoolers to practice their cutting skills, comes with a pair of safety scissors."
"However,, I had also purchased childrens scissors with this order, and it worked out beautifully."

Jumbo tips are perfect for painting in backgrounds -- and ideal for beginners, too.
Reviews
"I know it's a good price and I guess the cheap quality of the handle doesn't affect the painting of course. Overall though I would recommend them, just don't expect nice quality handles that you would expect from Melissa and Doug."
"And I made a mistake that I thought I can pour paint on the handles of those brushes."
"Another little perk is that the case it comes in doubles really nicely as a storage for the brushes so after I've washed and dried the brushes I just put them back in their original packaging."
"He is 3 and his big sister will paint along with him and I know he tries to do everything like her."
"We love M&D."
"The bristles are strong enough to bear those super excited toddler strokes, but also soft enough to spread the paint nicely."
"One of my students even made a comment on how easy her hand made tiny details on the paper just by using the new brushes."
"The shape of the handles are great for baby hands, my 10 month old is able to grab and hang onto them."
