How to use

Hold the triangular crayon between the thumb and first two fingers so the flat sides rest comfortably against the fingers for stable control. Apply light to medium pressure for typical coloring; increase pressure for more intense color or layering. Use the crayon tip for detail work and the side for broader strokes. Keep the crayons capped or stored in their box when not in use to protect tips and maintain cleanliness on surfaces.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use on standard drawing or sketching paper. Supervise young children during use to avoid accidental ingestion of small pieces. To maintain color intensity, avoid pressing excessively hard which may cause tip breakage; if tips do break, gently smooth edges before continuing. Combine colors for shading effects and encourage safe storage after each session.
