Thick Hexagonal Colored Pencils - The Best Wooden Pencils in a Set

Sturdy, break-resistant core

Our colored pencils withstand even action-packed coloring adventures. If the wooden pencils ever fall to the floor, the core inside the pencil remains intact. The double-sided and continuous special gluing of the 5.3 mm strong pencil cores makes the colored pencils so durable and guarantees the highest break resistance. You can feel this when coloring and sharpening — instead of flaking off, our high-quality cores hold up over time.

Vibrant colors thanks to highly pigmented core

Our 1 cm thick colored pencils house a high-quality core. This contains above-average amounts of strong color pigments and puts exactly what you want onto the paper: a wow of color!

Coloring on paper, wood & cardboard

With our color-intense wooden pencils, different materials can be successfully covered with vibrant color. Whether it's the drawing paper, the large cardboard beautifully painted into a playhouse or wooden picture frame turned into a self-made gift — with our high-quality wooden pencils the most creative projects succeed.

Suitable for right- & left-handers

Our colored pencils simply feel good. Whether painted with the right or the left hand: the pleasant hexagonal shape fits ideally and ensures long-lasting coloring comfort.

2in1: natural wooden pencil with color recognition

The appealing look of our colored pencils invites children and adults to draw and create. The natural wood appearance of the hexagonal grip surface brings a relaxing touch and makes the rich colors easy to recognize. So that this doesn't work solely because of the core, we equip our colored pencils with an attractive color band at the end of the pencil. This way, the artists can recognize from a distance where their desired color is hidden.

In the matching wooden box or wooden holder, color-sorted

With our practical wooden box tidying up becomes child's play, as each of the 12 popular colors gets its own compartment. Children enjoy sorting the appealing colored pencils by color, creating new sequences in the color progression and creating order. This also makes coloring much more relaxed. Because compared to a single compartment, it is quickly apparent here where which color is located. Those who prefer the pencils a bit more spread out and still nicely organized can do so using our matching wooden holder . In this they can either mix the colors across several tables to create an appealing spot or, as in the compartments of the wooden box, sort them by color.

The right pencil & the correct pencil grip

Who are the hexagonal pencils best for?

For children and adults who write with the four-point grip, hexagonal pencils are ideal. The shape fits better with this pencil grip than is the case with triangular pencils. Thus a comfortable writing posture is also possible in the long run.

Which is the correct pencil grip?

There is no universally correct pencil grip. To properly support a child here, they must be considered individually. In general, it makes sense to practice the three-point grip to offer the child this variant as an option. However, there are also some children and adults who prefer to draw and write with the four-point grip.

Exercise for the three-point pencil grip

As soon as the child has chosen their favorite color from the Thick Colored Pencils, give them a soft pompon. While the thumb, index finger and middle finger hold the colored pencil, the pompon is held in the hand with the ring finger and little finger. Small tasks can serve as a motivating challenge for more fun: 'Can you keep the pompon in your hand and at the same time draw your favorite animal?'

Break-resistant. Color-intense. Comfortable. That is the Thick Colored Pencil from KRAFT.
