The wax crayons from Stockmar are brilliant, not cheap, but the colours are so beautiful. At school our monsters work with them and it gives us great pleasure to see how enthusiastically they draw and colour with them. On the internet you can find all kinds of videos about how you - small and big - can use these crayons optimally.

The videos also tells you all about the ideas behind the block crayons. Why are these crayons so nice to use for young children for example. The sides of these crayons even have fun names! The long side is called Papa Bear, the short side is Mama Bear, the shortest side's name is baby Bear :))

We are happy that the little monsters like to use the wax crayons often to make such beautiful works of art for the walls!
