The Ultimate Guide to Adult Coloring

Do you like to color? I do, it is so much fun! I am so glad there has been an adult coloring craze the past few years. It is such a relaxing activity and so fun to do. And really adult coloring is not just for adults. It can be for teens and kids too. My daughter has some "adult" coloring books for kids she uses and loves. They have designs and patterns designed for kids in them.

Coloring Book Crayons and Markers: What's Inside the Box

Crayola came out with the Coloring book markers and Crayons in the late 1990's. The markers said they were a low bleed option for coloring books. Markers do often bleed through to the other page. I do not know if these were made especially for coloring books or a feature of the regular marker, but marketed as low bleed because they were low bleed anyway. The crayons appear to just be a normal crayon formulation, but specialty colors that look good in coloring books.

Crayola later expanded the Coloring Book line to Pip-Squeak markers in the 2000's. They are a specialty set of markers picked out to color with in coloring books.  Four of the colors are not included in the standard 16 Pip-Squeak set, tiny toad brown, blue jay, butterfly orange, and desert flower.
