Medenka Junior Natural Beeswax Pencils, Pastel

Medenka® Junior Pastel wax crayons are made from 100% natural and non-toxic ingredients, being handcrafted from natural beeswax and organic pigments.
Thicker and shorter than classic crayons, the Medenka® Junior Pastel wax crayons have an ergonomic shape, being specially created for children aged between 1 and 3 years. They are easy for small hands to use, providing real help in developing fine motor skills. 
The set of 6 pastel shades offers a delicate alternative to classic intense colors, being perfect for young children's first attempts at expressing creativity. They leave color on the drawing surface without needing to press hard. They have a pleasant scent of natural beeswax and gentle colors from organic pigments. They do not leave waxy residues or stains, and do not break in hand or upon impact with the floor.
Medenka® is a family business from Slovenia, with a history of beekeeping spanning over 150 years, beekeeping being, above all, an art passed down from generation to generation. Medenka® was born from the desire to create high-quality, eco-friendly products, safe for contact with your child's skin and mouth. Sustainable cardboard packaging with zero plastic. 
The wax selected for the production of these wax crayons does not contain pesticides or antibiotics, which makes it a truly friendly product for children's sensitive skin. Medenka® Junior Pastel wax crayons are certified according to European toy safety standards EN71-1 and EN71-3. 
We recommend using them under adult supervision!
Did you know that while bees produce sweet honey, beeswax forms as a byproduct? 8 kg of honey are needed to produce 1 kg of wax. Thank you, little bees, for your wonderful work!
