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

Sturdy, break-resistant core

Our colored pencils withstand even action-packed coloring adventures. If the wooden pencils should fall to the floor, the core inside the pencil remains intact. The double-sided and continuous special gluing of the 5.3 mm thick pencil cores makes the colored pencils so durable and guarantees maximum 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 a highly pigmented core

Our 1 cm thick colored pencils contain a high-quality core in the center. This contains above-average amounts of strong color pigments and delivers exactly what you want on 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 becoming 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 left hand: the comfortable hexagonal shape nestles ideally and provides 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 lets the rich colors be quickly recognized. So this does not rely solely on the core, we equip our colored pencils with an attractive color bar on the pencil end. This allows the artists to recognize from a distance where their desired color is hidden.

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

With our practical wooden box tidying up becomes child's play, as each of the 12 popular colors receives its own compartment. Children enjoy sorting the attractive colored pencils by color, creating new sequences in the color gradient and creating order. This also makes coloring much more relaxing. Because compared to a single compartment, it is quickly visible where which color is located. Those who prefer the pencils somewhat more spread out yet nicely organized can do so with our matching wooden pot . Here the colors can either be mixed across several tables to find an appealing place or sorted by color like in the compartments of the wooden box.

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 meshes better with the pencil hold 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 tripod grip to offer the child this option. However, there are also some children and adults who prefer to draw and write with the four-point grip.

Exercise for the tripod 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 motivating challenges 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.
