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

These are buttery and glides across your construction paper with ease! I would not recommend them for unsupervised children. They mark quickly and although cleaning them up from walls or surfaces others than paper is very easy it does take longer as water essentially turns them into paint. Very versatile! Can be used like pastel paints, watercolors, or "cooler" crayons. Says 3 plus. My three year old can use them but did end up using them up by the second use. I thought it was the product being short. I contacted the representative who's email was on the box. (Cool!) She responded quickly and gently led me to discover my toddler had probably pressed very hard (as this age is prone to do) and used them up more quickly than usual use would. The customer service is impeccable! We now have the dot dabbing unicorn 🦄 pastel markers! These are awesome for my younger toddler and also just as cool as the crayons!! Will definitely be looking for their other products to add to our art supplies!!!

These write so brightly! And my grandkids love using them. It can be hard for really young kids to press down on paper with typical crayons. But these write bright for everyone.

These "crayons" are absolutely wonderful. They glide on paper as easily as a shower-crayon glides upon a tub. The only difference is that it dries faster (when rubbed). That being said, I highly recommend crafting attire (and space) even when simply using them as crayons.It is absolutely necessary that they stay in their holders, because dry coloring with them caused my daughter's fingers to appear as if she had been playing with markers. The markings washed off easily enough with mild hand soap, but I can't say the same would work if it ever were to get on larger furniture.With Halloween around the corner, I imagine these might also work well for face or body paint, so long as it is kept out of the eyes of course.I love that they are set into their own container, though perhaps colored latches would help little ones find them easier.. (and tired eyes).The colors are definitely not your usual classics. Speaking of which, some of the crayon holders are so similar in shade to each other and out of sync with their actual crayon's color, that you have to lift them up and look at the tip to determine which shade of the color they actually contain. But for the most part, they are easy enough to distinguish.I certainly love these crayons, especially how smooth they glide, though I wonder how long they will last. My little one likes to press down hard (and I'm kinda hoping these will help to curb that tendency), so their softness is also a drawback as well as as a benefit. Only time will tell how well, and for how long, these hold up to the creative musings of family life.

I bought these for my kids age 2-10. My oldest two that are ages 7 and 10 did great with them… the almost 3 year old and 5.5 year old got really messy with them. They are really messy if you don’t use them correctly- ha! They were smearing them all over the place and breaking the tops off. Thankfully they are easy to clean! I was thinking these would be more like a smooth crayon consistency, but I would compare them more closely to oil pastels. They smear on paper very easily. Fun to color with because they are very vibrant and smooth but I would not give them to younger kiddos without a ton of supervision.

Awesome great super messy crayons for a 2/3-year-old, in my opinion or for my messy toddler… There was oily pasty crayon everywhere, my dresser my floor my kitchen counter I don’t even know how It got there… In my opinion this would be an amazing product for a child with a little bit more dexterity control and impulse control LOL which mine has none at this time… But as soon as she does, these will be awesome… I do Love that you can leave the cap off and it seems like they don’t really dry out easily…IF at ALL! ***That is key for an art medium with a small child… In my opinion it’s just not for a very small child unless you are giving them 100% direct supervision… If that’s the case then this is the crayon for you. They are beautiful and the colors are amazing.I can’t say anything to the colors coming out in the wash when they make it to closing, but I can say that they did not super easily come off of services but this is potentially only due to my daughters sneaking around and heavily marking on my things/furniture LOL… Which is my fault, not the crayons. Just giving a full warning they are not a miracle no problem crayon… I wish there was one!

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.
