Description
This set of six wax crayons turns colouring time into a little parade of sausage dogs. Each crayon is moulded as a long, low dachshund with a pointed nose, floppy ears and four stubby legs, so each one stands up on its own between drawings. The set brings six bright, solid colours: yellow, orange, red, purple, blue and green. Each crayon measures 8.3cm from nose to tail, 2.1cm tall and 1.6cm wide, a chunky shape that is easy for small hands to grip and simple to pick up from the table.
These kids' crayons suit a desk, a playroom table or the kitchen table on a rainy afternoon, and they tuck neatly into a pencil case or bag for drawing on the go. The dog shape gives children something to play with as well as something to draw with, and lining up all six colours like a row of pups is half the fun. We think the set makes a cheerful gift for children who love to colour, and it sits nicely alongside a sketchbook or a colouring book as a small present for a little artist.
The crayons are made of wax, which lays down bold colour on paper, and the broad body lets children switch between the tip for detail and the side for filling in larger areas. Keep them away from radiators and sunny windowsills so the wax stays firm. The set arrives in a bright blue windowed box decorated with an illustrated sausage dog in a striped jumper, ready to give straight away, and the box makes a handy home for all six pups once the drawing is finished.
