MindWare's Colored Pencils: Set of 18, Creative Activities, Ages 5 and Up

These colored pencils came exactly as described. Along with the colored pencils I also purchased one of the “Color-by-Number” coloring books by the same company. These colored pencils are made specifically to go along with these coloring books. When a section is said to be colored blue the exact expected “blue” is available and made specifically for this coloring book. This is wonderful, however, when I ordered them I was aware that the company also sold another package of this brand of coloring pencils. Walmart didn't have the larger count package so I purchased this 18 count box. Although I was able to still color the pictures it wasn't with the ease of just opening the box and having all the necessary colors of pencil within my reach. I still had to locate colors that were not included and that is why I gave this item 4* not a 5* rating. There should also be coloring books available that are specifically made for this specific 18 count colored pencil package. It is great to be able to go to a store, be in a specific department and purchase 2 separate products made by the same company that compliment and actually are made specifically for each other. With this product there is no choices to make or different options to consider. The ease of decision making is made for you!
