Faber-Castell Young Artist Learn to Watercolor Kit
(Faber-Castell $21.99)
A nice set to introduce young artists to watercolor painting. With tweet pieces, the set includes 12 vibrant watercolor cakes, an angled brush, one fine tip brush, one squeezable water brush, a pop-up cup for water, a painting mat, sticky putty for adhering paper to the painting mat, six sheets of watercolor paper, six sheets of multipurpose paper, as well as tips and techniques. They say 5 and up. Unlike the usual opaque tempera paints kids typically start with, these are more delicate and learning to use them takes time. Unlike pencil and paper tasks, this is more free-flowing, but helps to develop the the fine motor skills needed for writing as well as creative expression.
