Will these stains wash out of clothing?

Yes, the pigments are designed to wash out well, but immediate treatment of any marks is recommended.

Yes, due to their thick triangular shape, you should use a sharpener rated for thick or jumbo pencils.

Troubleshooting

Lead keeps breaking during sharpening

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Ergonomic triangular shape supports correct hand positioning
  • Thick design is easier for small hands to grasp
  • Strong leads resist breaking under pressure
  • Includes a wide variety of 16 colors
  • Washable pigments simplify cleanup

Cons

  • Not suitable for children under 3 years old
  • May require a larger sharpener to accommodate the thick diameter
  • Limited to a set of 16 colors

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These pencils require no assembly or batteries, making them ready to use immediately out of the box. Because they feature a unique triangular profile and a thicker-than-average barrel, ensure you have a sharpener that is compatible with thick-gauge pencils. To maintain the life of the pencils, store them in a cool, dry place to prevent the wooden casing from warping or the lead from becoming brittle. While the pigments are designed to wash out well, it is always recommended to use them on appropriate paper surfaces and provide supervision to ensure they are used solely for drawing and coloring purposes.
