Pelikan 811231 Combino Coloring Picture Set with 15 Pages for Preschoolers

The Pelikan Combino Coloring Picture Set is a creative activity pad designed specifically for preschoolers. Featuring 15 high-quality pages with engaging animal motifs, this set encourages artistic development and fine motor skill refinement in young children. The unique design allows the pages to be cut into three horizontal strips, enabling children to mix and match animal parts to create imaginative new creatures.

Advantages

This coloring set stands out due to its interactive nature, which goes beyond traditional coloring by allowing children to customize and combine different animal designs. The high-quality 170gsm paper ensures durability during coloring, while the sturdy cardboard back provides a stable surface for use anywhere. The integrated standing function makes it easy for children to display their work or keep the pad upright while they color, and the spiral binding allows for easy page turning and flat positioning.

Suitable for

• Preschoolers developing fine motor skills
• Creative play at home or during travel
• Artistic activities in kindergarten or daycare settings
• Children interested in animals and imaginative drawing

When it may not be suitable

This product may not be suitable for children who require larger coloring surfaces, as the 15x15 cm format is compact. It is also not intended for use with heavy wet media like watercolors, which might bleed through the paper despite its quality.

Key specifications

• Dimensions: 15 x 15 cm
• Number of pages: 15
• Paper weight: 170 gsm
• Binding: White O-Wire spiral

How to use

To use the set, simply select a page and color the animal motif using pencils or crayons. Once colored, the page can be cut along the pre-marked lines into three horizontal sections. By flipping these sections independently, children can create unique, hybrid animal combinations. The spiral binding ensures that pages remain securely in place while the pad is being used or stored.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure the child is supervised when using scissors to cut the pages.
• Consider that the compact size is designed for portability rather than large-scale art projects.
• Check if the child prefers animal-themed activities.

Usage recommendations

For the best experience, use high-quality colored pencils or wax crayons to ensure vibrant results on the 170gsm paper. Encourage children to experiment with different color combinations when creating their custom hybrid animals.
