How to use

Select the desired pencil colour and sharpen with a standard pencil sharpener suitable for coloured leads.

The triangular shape guides hand positioning for younger users and supports controlled strokes. Store pencils in the included hanging box to protect the leads and to maintain colour order for quick selection.

Usage recommendations

Use a sharpener designed for coloured pencils to avoid excessive lead breakage. For prolonged preservation of colour intensity, keep pencils out of direct sunlight and store them in the hanging box when not in use. Supervise children under six to ensure safe handling and correct use of sharpeners.
