Jumbo felt markers are a classic staple to any child's art supplies. The water-based ink in theses markers is easily washable from skin and most fabrics. The hexagonal shape of these markers makes them easy for little hands to hold, and because they are not round they will not roll away when they are not in use. The caps of the markers have a built in ventilation system, so they pose no choking risk. Kids love the bright, bold colors of this art set.
