Crayola - Watercolor Sets
Children discover color mixing and painting techniques with easy-clean pans
Children learn color theory best through direct experimentation, and watercolor provides immediate, forgiving feedback as colors blend and flow. These semi-moist oval pans activate quickly with water, encouraging spontaneous mixing without the mess of squeeze tubes or the commitment of permanent materials. Each set includes a brush sized appropriately for small hands and a hinged lid that transforms into a mixing palette, eliminating the need for separate supplies.
The oval pan format offers practical advantages for young artists: colors sit securely in molded wells that prevent tipping, while the semi-moist formula means no dried-out disappointments when sets sit unused between art sessions. Pans reactivate instantly with a wet brush, maintaining consistent performance whether used daily or occasionally. This reliability matters when you're teaching technique, children can focus on layering washes or experimenting with color combinations rather than wrestling with uncooperative materials.
Crayola formulates these watercolors to clean easily from skin and most washable fabrics, addressing the primary concern of parents and educators. The compact format stores neatly in art bins or backpacks, making these sets equally suitable for classroom use and home projects.
