Mr. Pen- Gel Crayons, 20 Pack, Twistable, Non-Toxic, Coloring Crayons for Kids & Adults, Smooth Drawing Sticks for Art, Blending, Crafts & Creative Projects

Looking for new activities at school or rainy days at home? These gel crayons are amazing. They create bright vibrant colors without pressing down on the paper, allowing artists of all ages more consistent color application. My users love the pop of color that is similar to paint without the mess and cleanup. You can use these crayons with art brushes to give a more watercolor look. The best part is that there is no staining on clothing or countertops. Soap and water take care of it all! I've used these crayons with children and young adults who are interested in art but lack the fine motor skills that even traditional crayons may require. I find that these gel crayons keep them engaged with their painting/coloring for a longer period of time with far less frustration.

Beautiful crayon color for artwork. The artist in your family will love them. However, the crayons are messy compared to the crayons I grew up with. These can get on clothing and furniture. Pay attention to the age recommendation for that reason. I have a kindergarten artist in the family. She loved the way these felt using them, smooth on the paper, but the color got on her shirt, the floor, table and chair. She was sitting quietly coloring (not her fault).

Nice colors. Loved the crayons

I wasn't sure what to expect from these, using them was a total experiment. The colors are bright, and not quite opaque. Smudgable with a rag or fingertip, really blendable with water/damp rag. Honestly they feel a little like lipstick in consistency. Press down gently for a thin/light line, or firmly for a thick/dark one (but that tends to leave clumps). A little hard and stiff to twist up at first (from the colored bottom piece), but easier after that. The first image shows the opacity and blendability of the Mr. Pen gel crayons vs. Crayola washable paint sticks on black construction paper and white copy paper. The Crayola sticks dry pretty much as soon as they're laid down, don't blend or smudge (unless you get them pretty wet). The Mr. Pen sticks stay blendable and smudgable for a long time – so that may have a factor in how you use them. I use them for small art pieces (art cards, art journals) that won't be handled a lot; I haven't tried them in anything larger yet. Overall, I like the brightness of the colors, the smoothness of the gel, and how well the material responds to water. I wish that there was a little more variety in the colors in the set (that the colors were more dissimilar), and that the cap colors were a little more representative. The second image shows all the colors on plain white paper.

Wanted to try them after I saw some on TikTok. Lots of colors for the price, very fun!

So much fun. My granddaughter loves discovering new art supplies and she really likes these. They're a great value for the price. The colors a vibrant. The crayons are basically mess free.

Nice colors and smooth coloring but the wear down really fast. Not good for small detail as this is a wider crayon.

These are watercolor crayons! I used them today. I thought the colors were vibrant and they worked beautifully. I add these crayons to a painting well by rubbing the crayon into the well. I add the amount of water I want to achieve the correct color. I mix with a paint brush and apply. I don’t know how kid friendly these are. They seem more suited to an adult crafter. The price is nice too

Really fun for kids to draw with these. Glide smoothly and effortlessly. Gorgeous colours. Only thing to note is reminding little kids to not push too hard as the gel crayon is soft and wears down fast the harder they press.

Manchan toda la hoja, no me gustaron

Nice colours but i found that they were just a bit to soft.

Great colours and the crayons are soft and easy for my toddler to draw with. I dont have to worry about him breaking it in half, and or using the entire crayon in one go since it needs to be twisted. Its also easy to wipe off surfaces. I will be repurchasing once we are out!

Kids love using them! They are very messy
