The colored pencil is the essential tool in a student's pencil case and the ideal companion for creative leisure time at home. Whether for homework, coloring a mandala, or free drawing, choosing the right pencil makes all the difference. At Wlidaty, we offer a vast range of pencils suited to every stage of a child's development and every artistic technique. From the first scribble to precision drawing, we have selected trusted brands like Maped, Bic, Staedtler, and Faber-Castell, known for their quality and safety.
Our collection covers all needs: from ergonomic triangular pencils for learning proper grip to ultra-resistant leads for dynamic students, and innovative textures like wax or watercolor. Available in boxes of 12, 24, or more, our sets offer a palette of vibrant colors to awaken the imagination of young Moroccan artists, all at affordable prices in dirhams (MAD).
The different types of pencils available:
- Classic colored pencils: Made of wood or resin, with solid leads and intense colors, perfect for school and daily coloring.
- Wax Pencils (Wax & Plastidecor): Ideal for toddlers (from 2-3 years old) because they are robust, do not stain hands, and glide easily on paper.
- Jumbo Pencils (Maxi): Large-bodied pencils, easy to grasp for small hands just starting to learn grip.
- Watercolor Pencils: Magical pencils whose color dissolves with a little water and a brush to create a paint effect.
- Erasable and "Infinity" Pencils: Practical innovations like pencils that erase with a rubber or those that last 10 times longer without needing to be sharpened.
- Graphite Pencils and Mechanical Pencils: For writing and technical drawing, with different lead hardnesses (HB, 2B...).
Tips for choosing and maintaining your pencils:
- For children in preschool, prefer triangular shapes and wide bodies (Jumbo) which encourage a good pencil grip.
- Teach your child not to press too hard on the lead to avoid breakage and prolong the pencil's lifespan.
- A good pencil sharpener is essential: choose a model with a reservoir adapted to the diameter of the pencils (standard or maxi) to keep the leads sharp and precise.
- Store pencils in their original box or a pencil case after each use to prevent drops that break the lead inside the wood.
Frequently Asked Questions about Colored Pencils (FAQ)
What is the difference between a wood pencil and a resin pencil?
Resin pencils (like Bic Evolution or Maped Strong models) are made without wood. If they break, they don't splinter, which is safer for children. They are often more flexible and shock-resistant than traditional wood pencils.
At what age can wax crayons be given?
Wax crayons (Plastidecor type) are often recommended from 30 months (2 and a half years old). They are solid, do not need to be sharpened, and mark the paper without needing to press hard, which is gratifying for toddlers.
Do watercolor pencils require special paper?
For a better result, it is preferable to use a slightly thicker paper (Canson type) if you use a lot of water. However, for light use at school, standard paper generally supports the technique well if it is not too "wet".
How to clean crayon marks from walls or tables?
For wax or classic colored pencils, a magic sponge or a little white toothpaste gently rubbed can often work wonders. Pencils labeled "washable" or "ultra-clean" usually come off with soapy water.
Why choose triangular pencils?
The triangular shape is ergonomic. It naturally guides the fingers (thumb, index, middle finger) toward the ideal writing position ("the pinch"), which helps the child acquire good graphomotor reflexes without fatigue.
