How to use

Select the desired crayon color and hold the jumbo body comfortably in the hand. Apply even pressure for full coverage or lighter pressure for softer tones; varied pressure allows basic shading and blending directly on paper. Use short strokes for detailed areas and broader strokes for larger fills. Store crayons in the original box or a dry container to prevent breakage and to keep colors organized.

Usage recommendations

For young children, supervise use to avoid accidental breakage or ingestion. When blending colors, test on a scrap sheet to estimate pressure and hue mixing. Keep crayons away from direct heat sources to prevent softening.
