Honeysticks Magic 3-in-1 Beeswax Pencils - Little Learners 8pk - Stage 2

As little hands begin to explore colour and mark-making, the Honeysticks Magic 3-in-1 Little Learners Beeswax Pencils offer three wonderfully different ways to create. Little artists can draw directly onto paper and card, add water with a paintbrush to transform their marks into beautiful watercolour-style paintings, or draw straight onto glass for colourful, wipe-clean creativity. Draw with Ease Designed as first pencils for toddlers aged 1+, these chunky beeswax pencils are easy for little hands to hold and use. Measuring approximately 3.4 inches long and 0.6 inches in diameter, their substantial shape feels comfortable in small hands while being wonderfully durable and resistant to snapping, cracking and breaking. The thick beeswax-based core means children do not need to press hard to create bright, colourful marks. This makes them particularly well suited to young artists who are still developing the hand strength, coordination and control needed for drawing. Made with a natural beeswax core rather than petroleum-derived paraffin wax, Honeysticks offer a thoughtfully made way for toddlers to begin exploring colour and creative expression. Paint with Water These are far more than ordinary coloured pencils. Add a little water with a paintbrush and the beeswax colours can be transformed into soft, watercolour-style washes. Children can experiment with drawing first and then gently brushing over their marks to discover how the colours change. They can create bold lines, delicate washes, blend different colours together or simply enjoy watching their drawings take on a whole new quality. This simple technique introduces toddlers to the idea that the same art material can be used in different ways, encouraging curiosity, experimentation and creative confidence. Create on Glass For another completely different creative experience, the pencils can be used directly on glass and other smooth surfaces. Children can decorate a window, mirror or suitable glass surface with colourful pictures, patterns and imaginative scenes. When it is time for a fresh canvas, simply wipe the artwork away with a damp cloth. There is no need to commit to a finished picture, making glass drawing a wonderfully spontaneous and repeatable activity for young children. Drawing on glass also creates an interesting change from paper, allowing children to explore a different surface while enjoying the freedom to create, erase and begin again. Made for Little Artists Honeysticks Little Learner Pencils are handcrafted in New Zealand using a natural beeswax-based core and PEFC-certified wood. They are made without petroleum-derived paraffin wax and are designed with both children and the environment in mind. Their smooth, chunky form makes them approachable for toddlers, while the vibrant colours and three different ways to use them encourage children to keep experimenting as their creative confidence grows.

Three Ways to Explore Creativity From a first colourful scribble to a watercolour painting or a picture drawn across a window, the Honeysticks Magic 3-in-1 Little Learners Beeswax Pencils give young children the freedom to discover that creativity can take many different forms. Natural materials, a toddler-friendly design and three wonderfully simple ways to create make this a lovely introduction to the joy of art. WHAT ARE HONEYSTICKS BEESWAX PENCILS?
