[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got Prang Watercolor Pencils they are awsome. I used them they work great as colored pencils. They also can be used as water color paint. I used them to let my child paint with out the mess. I outlined a coloring book, that had all his favorites in it . He was super excited to get to paint them. It was easy to do, and was no mess fun.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The kids and I had a blast using the Prang Watercolor Colored Pencils...draw like a pencil and then brush over it making it a watercolor. It was easy to do and it really looked great. I think the beginning being a pencil gives you control and confidence and then the end result is just beautiful! Super fun! We literally spent hours doing it! I would highly recommend it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wouldn't say this is a particularly good brand, but my son has enjoyed using them. I tried them using the brush dipped in water, and just using the pencils themselves dipped in water.
When dipping the (included) brush in water, I found that it took a very light hand to make sure the colors did not spread way beyond where I wanted them.
When dipping the pencils themselves in water, I found that I had to dip VERY often for the lead not to just go dry and desaturation to start.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Nice water color colored pencils that draw and write nicely. They come with a brush to blend it out with water. My favorite way to use them is to draw on wet paper then blend it with the brush out to where I want it. Nice small variety of colors and the brush is of decently nice quality as well.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Full disclosure: I've never used a watercolor pencil before and I am not a talented artist so I don't have anything to compare these to. Having said that, it was really fun to use these. I like that they come already sharpened and with a brush. It was so fun to apply the brush/water to give a watercolor effect to parts of my drawing. I am not an artist so I won't be sharing my work but I like to color as a way to de-stress. These pencils kicked the creativity up a notch. You can use them dry like pencils or you can apply a wet brush to change the color intensity, shading, texture, etc. I liked having a mix of both to add depth to my drawing. I suggest making yourself a sample chart so you can see what the colors look like after the water dries.I want more colors!

Neat pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] They’re actually pretty neat. I love the way they work.
It allows you to draw with them with precision (not easy with regular water colors) and then water them down for the water color look. The outcome is very nice and consistent.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] easy to use. i found the pencils to be easy to sharpen when dull, they dont have a lot of smuges when using them. the brush was a little on the thick side for what I was using the colors for but it was easy to easy and the strokes were clean

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I and my daughter both have used them and love them. I have never bought the brand before. I will decently be ordering a larger set. I would also recommend to a friend who loves great working pencils.
