Markers for Children
Markers in every kind: brush markers, double-ended markers, chunky markers for toddlers, metallic and window markers.
Colour that really covers
Markers give a solid, even colour that pencils cannot match, which is why a finished drawing looks so satisfying. Brush tips let a child vary the line from hairline to broad without changing pen. For older children they are the step up that makes drawing feel serious.
Choosing by age
Chunky markers with a thick barrel suit toddlers, whose grip is still a whole-hand one. Washable inks are worth insisting on until about five, whatever the promises on the packaging. Double-ended markers give a fine and a broad tip in one pen, which halves what has to be carried.
