Oil Pastels 24pc
If you're looking for art supplies to use with a Colour-in Playhouse, these chunky hexagonal oil pastels are a perfect fit.
Many of our customers ask what art supplies we recommend for our playhouses. Whatever you have at home works perfectly: crayons, poster paint, acrylic paint, khokis, blunt coloured pencils, stickers, and glued on accessories all suit.
That said, if you'd like to pair a playhouse with some new art supplies, we find that oil pastels produce beautifully vivid colour. We use these when we colour in our own playhouses, including in the examples you may have seen on our adverts. If you've met Little Weasel at a show, we bring oil pastels for demos.
We selected this set because it includes 24 vibrant colours, and the chunky, hexagonal shape suits children's hands. These are slightly larger than a standard crayon, which helps kids cover the larger areas of our playhouses more quickly—very helpful considering how much colouring in there is to do!
Please bear in mind that oil pastels are softer and slightly messier than crayons (but much less messy than paint). Smudges on clothes or fabric can be removed with dish soap.
What's in the carton: 24 hexagonal oil pastels
