    Oh wow, I can't wait! I think I moved on from Crayola colours to looking in avon catalogues at the lovely colours of the eye shadows and nail polish. When we were about 15 I remember my friend buying matching eye shadow and nail polish in daffodil yellow. I bought some perfume called Avon Elegance! How tacky. I'm back on the crayons now though.

    I use Bic kids
    http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B...rch_detailpage

    They have always been good for me, if the lids are left off you can pop them in a water dip and revigourate.

    Knibs are a little soft and heavy fist drawing sometimes spreads them, but I usually intervene before it's too spread!

    My latest packet is a little more difficult to wipe with my whiteboard rubbers, but are great with a tissue so not sure if it's the new ink or something to do with rubber!

    Yes mumafone , I have some in an activity set and they are ok so I'm hoping these will be the same. May look at the Bic ones as well.

    They came yesterday. They are about 2/3 the size of the normal pens. They don't smel😀. The children have been rubbing the out with dry kitchen roll. Up until now ok. Not sure how long they will last but no smell is a big plus for me.
