Triangular grip guides young hands to color comfortably for hours
Triangular barrels position fingers automatically into proper grip without conscious adjustment. That ergonomic design reduces hand fatigue during extended coloring sessions while helping young artists develop correct pencil control from the start. Maped loads these pencils with soft, resilient 2.9mm cores that lay down bright pigment smoothly and blend readily without excessive pressure, important for building color gradually and maintaining paper surface integrity.
The range adapts to different needs and preferences. Standard colored pencils deliver straightforward performance across drawing and illustration work. Watercolor versions include a brush for activating pigment with water, transforming dry strokes into fluid washes. Duo pencils pack two colors per barrel, giving you 24 hues in a 12-pencil set, practical for travel or limited workspace. Jumbo pencils feature thicker 4.7mm cores that last longer and suit broader coverage, though they require large-bore sharpeners rather than standard ones.
All versions arrive pre-sharpened and ready to use. The triangular exterior transitions to circular diameter at the tip, maintaining compatibility with standard sharpeners across most of the range. Non-toxic and AP approved formulation meets safety standards for educational and home use.
