I run a very popular afterschool art club and work with up to 60 children each week. We rarely use paints due to the additional time it takes to set up painting materials and clean up afterwards, not to mention the potential damage to the classroom and children's clothing! We've occasionally used watercolour pencils but the cheap ones are useless and the expensive ones are poor value for money. These Stabilo pencils have solved all these problems once and for all. Yes, they are pricey, but they are too chunky to break and the colours are incredibly vivid so a little goes a long way. It's a joy to see the children's faces when I demonstrate how they work - it's like magic!

These are much chunkier than any toddler mark making tools I've used before but are easy to hold and use with their non slip grip wood pencil like outer. They are round rather than the often found triangular grip but this means you can sharpen them with the oversized sharpener included.I did balk at the cost of this set but I think these crayons that look like pencils and are as strong a colour as felt tips are worth it. The drawing you can do with them is strong and colourful - much brighter than colouring pencils and you can even draw on glass and plastic with the mess easily removed with something like a baby wipe. Like crayon though it doesn't mark fabric well so greater protection for things like your carpet and sofa.

We bought a small set of these as part of a big sister gift for my three year old earlier this year and they were such a hit I opted to try the bigger set with sharpener included as they are such an excellent art tool for especially young children.These pencils are multiple duty meaning they reduce the necessary purchasing and storing of multiple art materials if you are limited on space or budget. They can do duty as colouring pencils (for younger children) crayons, black paper pencils and water colour paints. The RRP may seem steep but to purchase everything separately (including strongly-pigmented pencils for black paper work) AND the sharpener which was previously only on add-on,

Crayons are a great standard for young kids, they are fun to play with and colouring in is a great way to spend some of a wet day in, or for an aritistic child any of the time. The 'Stabilo 3-1 Pencils' are not just crayons, but also paints and can be used for a window display. Most children will use them for the standard colouring in and here they are excellent. The pencils are super chunky so ideal for small hands to hold and they go onto paper brilliantly. This pack of ten comes with most of the standard colours, but also a handy child friendly sharpener. Because the lead is a little more crayon like, it is softer and can be squished a little,

...behaves like a crayon, and you can add a bit of water to paint, too, hence the title: 'STABILO® WOODY 3 in 1'☀ BOX of 10 ~ ASSORTED COLOURSThe colours I received are:♦ LIGHT GREEN♦ DARK GREEN♦ LIGHT BLUE♦ DARK BLUE♦ RED♦ YELLOW♦ ORANGE♦ BROWN♦ BLACK♦ PEACHI am no stranger to ‘Woodys’, having had boxes all the same colour for various projects in the past, usually when they have come up on the ‘Amazon Add-On’ programme, at great discounted prices.Despite its chunkiness, a ‘Woody’ is easy to hold for most sized hands with solid colour achieved with just a little pressure from the soft 10 mm core. The product detail above gives oodles of possibilities and the video clip is short but sweet.Generally used as a blanket cover over multicoloured A5 card ahead of stencilling out,

I Bought the 5 pack of these with my eldest and was instantly impressed by them, I had wanted to buy a bigger pack with more colours but hadn't wanted duplicates so when I saw Amazon were now selling these I jumped at the chance to review these. My old ones have lasted 3 years so far and are still a favourite - I just LOVE these and have recommended to all mummies I know!The colours are so vibrant and the leads so soft that even children who don't yet apply much pressure will get good mark making with these. The barrel of the pencil is really nice to grip in the youngest hands as they are so chunky. The leads have never broken despite being banged, bitten and coloured with.

A friend of ours bought us a set of these "pencils" for our two year old son and we were so impressed that we went out and bought a larger rainbow of colours.These are a beautiful, chunky cross between a pencil and a crayon (the outer sheath is wooden with stripes indicating the colour of the pencil but the "lead" is very soft like a crayon).The colours are vibrant and varied and transfer very well to paper, my son has not problems at all holding and drawing with them and loves to sit down at the dining room table with me and tear a big strip of paper off the roll we have and draw trains, aeroplanes, the family, letters and birthday cakes with candles with me.They are water soluble and wipe easily off our laminated wooden coffee table too,

My six-year-old daughter has spent pretty much the whole of this week using these pencils as soon as she gets home from school. They put down a great volume of colour with ease and are great for use on sugar paper and cardboard boxes. We have had quite a bit of fun drawing on the conservatory window tracing things we can see in the garden (try it) and even her sister (who stood in the garden for tracing purposes),They work on white cartridge paper but I'd suggest keeping these pencils for heavier, coloured paper. The water-colour feature works really well either by dipping the pencils; or better still, by using a wet paint brush to blend the pencil strokes.Anything not to like?

...behaves like a wax crayon and you can use it to ‘paint’ to, hence the title:‘The ‘multi-talented’ STABILO® WOODY 3 in 1’♦ BOX of 5 (SAME COLOUR)♦ COLOUR : DARK GREENThe product detail above gives oodles of possibilities but I required these to apply a complete layer of solid green on top of coloured stripy cardboard, ahead of stencilling out various shapes. They are chunky and get the rather daunting job done far quicker than a regular sized crayon.The ‘Woody’ is easy to hold, despite its chunkiness, laying down a thick layer with little pressure from the 10 mm core.The quality cardboard box the five come in measures around 7.75 cm x 1.5 cm x 11.5 cm and has a cut out on the side to easily identify the colour within.

Having twin 2 year old boisterous boys that have started being allowed to colour & draw at nursery, we have had to obtain drawing implements & so the chance to review something of this level ( which I wouldn't normally consider purchasing at £17 ) was much appreciated.10 very versatile coloured pencils, with the ability to draw on a multitude of surfaces such as paper, glass, ceramic & card as well as the ability to use with water for a paint effect makes their 3 in 1 claim spot on. Note that they are water soluble so accidental drawing on hard floors, tables etc makes for easy cleaning but we haven't had any wall drawing yet !Easy to hold,

Wonderful vibrant colours that mark the paper nice and easily even in the hand of a baby or toddler (none of this scribbling away hard just to leave a faint pastel-y line behind).The water-soluble aspect is lovely too - we've even produced some interesting artwork by rubbing babywipes across pictures (so long as you didn't use black or it's just a big grey smear).However, the water-solubility also means an almighty mess if one gets put in a mouth for even half a second. They also colour skin in alarmingly well. My toddler is currently in the bath with a yellow face, and I've just finished trying to wipe blue off the baby's teeth and tongue. This doesn't happen with regular pencils!The necessary giant sharpener is a rip-off,

I had never seen these before until I was offered the chance to review them and I was so glad I was as they are fantastic.My son has a few issues around motor skills and so far results using a variety of crayons and chunky chalks have produced a few mixed results. Concerned he needs to start practising holding pens/pencils these fit the bill nicely.They are indeed very chunky and easy to grip. They produce great results on paper and they have been fun with water. They are soo chunky I'm confident they will take much more abuse than a crayon and certainly look and feel like they will last a long time. They write and glass which I tried away form my son as I don't want to come home one day to find toddler art where it shouldn't be.You get a handy sharpener too.

Oh my!!! I have thrown away all my toddler's other rubbish pencils that come with activity packs, and most of her tatty hardened wax crayons too. Buy these and you can chuck out all your whiteboard markers at work too. They are simply marvellous. wash over the paper with water and watch the vibrance emerge... just gorgeous. My little one's interest in and skill at colouring increased overnight once she got some of these for a birthday gift. I am buying these for other children now as they are just wonderful. Won't break if they get flung around, and safe for babies as they're completely non toxic. Erases off glass plastic and whiteboards too. The sharpener is a bit poor but once you get the knack it does the job.

I came across these at an Ask Pizza restaurant, which put them out for my toddler daughter to use while waiting for a meal. I was very impressed with them and decided that I had to buy them for my daughter. The colour flows easily without the need to apply much pressure so they are a bit like a cross between a pencil and a felt-tip. They are much shorter and fatter than the usual pencil so are much easier for a toddler to hold. The colour on the page looks better than that produced by a crayon, without the mess of a felt tip pen. The colours are also lovely in that they are very bold and bright. They are also very portable, given their size. They are quite satisfying to use as an adult too.

These crayons are fantastic - we have had our set now for about 4 years and they look hardly used, they are so hard wearing they only need an occasional sharpen. The colours are so vivid and strong - they are far better than any other crayons we have for brightness and depth. We also use them on a white board and I think they are better than dry wipe markers which dry up and run out of ink after a couple of months whereas I can't see us ever needing to replace these. They are also great with wipe clean books and are easier to clean off the pages where as the dry wipe markers left some powdery marks I could not remove, these wipe off and leave the page as good as new.
