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

Stable, break-resistant lead

Our colored pencils withstand even action-packed coloring adventures. If the wooden pencils ever fall to the floor, the lead inside the pencil remains intact. The double-sided and through-glue bonding of the 5.3 mm thick pencil leads makes the colored pencils so durable and guarantees maximum break resistance. You can feel this when coloring and sharpening — instead of chipping, our high-quality leads hold up over time.

Vibrant colors thanks to highly pigmented lead

Our 1 cm thick colored pencils contain a high-quality core. This contains an above-average amount of strong color pigments and puts exactly what you want onto the page: 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 frames turned into personalized gifts — with our high-quality wooden pencils the most creative projects succeed.

Suitable for right- & left-handers

Our colored pencils just feel good. Whether painted with the right or the left hand: the pleasant hexagonal shape nestles perfectly 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 recognized quickly. So this doesn’t work only because of the core, we equip our colored pencils with a pleasing color stripe at the pencil end. This way artists can recognize from a distance where their desired color is hiding.

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 attractive colored pencils by color, creating new sequences in the color gradient and making order. This also makes coloring much more relaxed. Because compared to a single compartment, it is quickly clear where each color is located. Those who like the pencils a bit more spread out yet nicely ordered can use our matching wooden holder to do so. Here the colors can either be mixed across several tables to create an attractive spot or sorted by color as in the compartments of the wooden box.

The right pencil & the correct pencil grip

Who are the hexagonal pencils best for?

Hexagonal pencils are ideal for children and adults who write with a four-point grip. The shape meshes better with the grip than triangular pencils do. Thus a comfortable writing posture is possible in the long term.

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 grip

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

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