Arts & Craft materials

[cnimed]

A little off-topic, but just want to add my 2 cents that when buying art materials, the cheapest is usually an expensive buy. Why? Becuase the quality is so poor that the child can’t use it at all. You have to rub so hard just to get some colors out from the crayon. The paintbrush can’t even hold paint properly. The paints don’t even mix well with water.


So at least for the middle-range ones, then your child can enjoy the process and results. If you don’t mind, get the artist-grade ones in a few chosen colors, so that your child can see the brilliant colors.

Hi,


Wondering are you still looking for a place where you can play together with your children ? Perhaps you can contact Mr. Lee at ClayCulture. In there they provide fun and educational clay/ceramic making workshop for the young and old. Will PM you for details whether you want to know more about them and hope it help…

I am trying to buy a good quality colour pencil and crayon.

One that do not need to draw hard to have vibrant colours.
Any brands to recommend ?

Depending on the age of the child, crayola is quite a good brand for little ones. You can get them from major departmental stores.
