BicKids Mini Velleda Whiteboard Markers - Pot of 24

I bought these for my 5yr old daughter to use on her new mini white boards, for drawing and practising her letter formation. I found them to be very good for the good and a good size for writing and drawing with. Good value, I thought, for the amount you get. The size was not too bad - suitable for little hands (and big ones!)After a week or so I found my daughter stabbing at the whiteboard (as kids do) to make a dot effect. The pen still managed to take the strain! The pen lids tend to be quite stiff and my daughter had some trouble taking them off and putting them on. The fibre nibs of the pens started to 'fray' because of the pressure being used to push the lids back on. Not very good. This then meant the writing and drawing quality of the pen was compromised. I've had to throw a few out - not so bad as there are 24, but it has only been a couple of weeks use!Nice pen and good value if - you don't mind throwing a few out from time to time! A shame the lids are too tight.

Bit smaller than I expected but still a good buy All the pens worked and the size was easy for my grandaughter to hold

A smaller range of colours than suggested by the photo, but enough to please a 5 year old who no longer had pens that she could use with her wipe-clean books. They were very easy to use with the wipe-clean books we have - don't yet know how long they'll last before drying out.

I have spent a considerable amount of money buying loads of different dry wipe marker pens for my twins including the more expensive Melissa and Doug pens.Beware - most are only suitable for the hands of adults. These are the only ones suitable for the smaller hands of pre-schoolers ( my 3 and 1/2 year old boys love them and it has helped their writing skills come on immensely ) and since there are 24 , it doesn't matter if a few are left without their caps on and dry up - you can throw them away and still have plenty left.In fact I had bought one pot 3 months ago and still have 10 left from there. I am now ordering my second pot and an extra one for a friend's toddler.

BIC KiDS 'Mini VELLEDA' Dry Wipe Markers (Pot x 24) We bought these dry wipe markers for my 2 year old son. They don't seem to dry up when the lids get left off and wash off skin very easily. The colours are good and wipe off the white board well.

Good size pens for small fingers, seem very durable and the colours are lovely and bright. Are ideal for my grandaughter age 2.

Are very good for those little hands. Are not easy to get of if colored on the same spot, I actually used alcohol for white board to get it off and we see lines staying on the board.

Expensive and absolutely tiny! Couldnt believe how small they were for the price I paid!
