Crayola Color Wonder Marker Review

Little Monster and I have been using his Crayola Color Wonder markers for a few weeks now. I had heard good things about them but I was still skeptical. Would they really leave no marks on anything but the paper? It seemed too good to be true, especially with a toddler in the house.

We dug right in as soon as our package was delivered. And of course I needed to check if they really worked like they said they did. So I decided to color my jeans and the couch cushion. Looking back that was a bad place to start if they didn't work. Thankfully though, they haven't colored on anything but the paper.

When coloring, I've noticed sometimes colors will show up right away as if you were using a regular marker. However, it usually seems to take a minute for the color to show up. Little Monster isn't discouraged by this. He just colors more. They also feature cool backgrounds, borders and designs on the characters that you can't see until you start coloring. They aren't as cheap as basic markers, but they are worth it for no mess. They have so many different options for coloring books including metallic and glitter. They also offer a blank pad of color wonder paper. I love these markers and definitely would recommend them.

These are the sets we have, and Little Monster's Grandma got him the Cars set with markers for Christmas.
