Shuttle Art 40 Colours Tempera Paint Sticks for Children, Washable for Kids

I love these! I know they’re intended for children (and they will be great for mess free painting) I use them in my sketchbook and they dry instantly for a great background colour. Not good for blending but I have other things I can use for that if I want. I’ll definitely be buying again

I'm UTTERLY obsessed with these - although they are sold as a kids art product .. I am an artist, who loved to play! And these materials are SO much fun, far exceeding my expectations! I plant to get some more some time! Great for layering, I've enjoyed adding some textured colour onto some finished paintings like the ones in the photos attached ! (eg first pic - see the yellow colour) and white textures in the sky in second sketch book painting.

Easy for little hands to use and washable

Great paints, I’ve bought them developed times kids love them.

Apart from not being professional quality - these are just so so good ! They are creamy, rich in colour , a delight to use and such a great price .Wonderful for sketchbook work and just getting art down ! Not suitable obviously for detailed work , but use of artist tape will give you more control . Not good with water , but then again you may want that effect where the lines are not going anywhere but colour will draw out from it.I am glad I chanced these , they really are worth getting and you will want to fill your sketchbook pages . Fascinated by how they dry so well and so quick .No smudging , once dry,and that’s a huge plus for sketchbook s !!! AND , another huge advantage , Posca glides over these . I’m sure other pens and markers would work too , have not tried yet. So overall these are a great buy, and I would definitely purchase again . I highly recommend these Shuttle Art Tempera Sticks 32 set. One more thing , they include some neon, pastel and metallic . Gives a great insight , if one wanted to purchase those in a different set . Beautiful . I am a professional artist .

No mess. Vibrant colours. Children love using them.

These are great. Vivid colours, dry fast. Lots of fun.

A good value for money

Ich habe sowohl das normale 30er Set als auch das Set mit den Pastellfarben. Hier bewerte ich das normale Set:Leuchtende, schöne Farben. Die Metallic schimmern schön. Kein Geschmotze, Farbe trocknet im Grunde sofort, das Skizzenbuch lasse ich trotzdem eine halbe Stunde offen liegen, damit beim Zuklappen nichts zusammenklebt. Durch das schnelle Trocknen ist es aber nicht möglich, die Farben mit dem Finger zu verstreichen und ineinander zu verblenden. Allerdings sind sie wasserlöslich (die Striche lösen sich dadurch nicht auf, aber man durchaus Farbe herumschieben). Durch die Dicke der Stifte ist präzises Arbeiten nicht möglich, und ich gehe davon aus dass die Farben nicht lichtecht sind. Leider lassen sich keine einzelnen Farben nachkaufen und ich habe den Eindruck dass ich die Sticks sehr schnell aufbrauchen werde. Viel Plastik. Für Kinder super, und ich selbst habe auch großen Spaß mit den Sticks.Es gibt auch größere Sets, aber wer sowieso das Pastellset noch dazu kaufen möchte, ist zum jetzigen Zeitpunkt (22.07.24) am Besten dran mit dem 30er Set und dem Pastellset, denn in den größeren Sets sind schon mehrere Pastellfarben dabei, und diese hätte man dann doppelt.

Great variety of colours

Really smooth to paint with and a beautiful shine!

Je suis contente d'avoir découvert ce produit! Facile à utiliser, ça n'en met pas partout! Couleurs qui sont sympa, facile à nettoyer si l'enfant dépasse de la feuille, et je suis surprise par la durée car en l'utilisant tous les jours, il y en a encore dedans

These paint sticks are truly the best. I’m an infant and toddler teacher and got these for my class. Young children don’t always have the fine motor strength to use enough pressure to get the color out of crayons that older children do and sometimes markers can be hard to clean. Wet paint is good to use but is always messy and many young children just want to put it in their mouths. These paint sticks were so easy to use, quick to dry, so creamy, and the colors were so bright and amazing. It really looked like paint once it was dry. You could layer the paints without blending and it felt so satisfying to use. I wish they made these in thinner sticks to make more detailed art for older children. My own kids (4 & 2) also loved these. They spent more time making art with these than other crayons or markers. These are way better than gel crayons which don’t always dry and often transfer colors to other things if the paper rubs against another material long after being used. The cleanup is so easy. They wash right off of hands and tabletops. I haven’t tried washing out of fabrics yet but it seems like it will come out with ease. I love these and will always keep a set on hand.
