Can these be used with the pencil by number sets or paint by number setss or do they have to be used on a certain type of paper.

These pencils can be used on any kind of paper you want to use. Just be aware that if you're not using watercolor paper, you will have to be careful not to saturate the paper with too much water or it will start to buckle and curl. As long as they don't come into contact with water, they will look pretty much like a normal colored pencil. Water "activates" them, and you can either color onto paper and then add water using a paintbrush, or you can take the paintbrush directly to the tip of the colored pencil and pick up color that way.

I agree with the first answer. I've found "multi-media" art paper in spiral bound work pretty ok with the watercolor use. Again, you don't have to add water but what a cool effect for paint by numbers. Matching colors may be a bit of challenge unless you have a good eye.

These can be used on any kind of paper, but if you want to use water, you need a good quality water color paper.

I think they are best for a regular size pencil. Markers are generally too thick to fit in. If you squeeze a lot it can for on a mechanical pencil--just a little harder to slide it on. This is good for my 6 year old's hand, but I can use it too. You are only using your thumb and index finger on it so both fit.

i have a standard chalkboard but my friend who turned me on to these uses them on a metal cookie sheet she painted with chalkboard paint. Hope that answers your question.

Any paint works, but I couldn't find refill paper. The paper is octagon shaped---not a easily found shape of paper! For that reason alone I'd consider a different set. That is the only thing I didn't like about this toy. Haven't used it since we ran out of the 8 sheets of paper it came with.

Yes colored pencils write easily on these labels. They are non-shiny, with a flat finish (like paper) and they work well with printer ink, pencil, pen, etc. Very versatile labels.....and they look great.

Sure you can. It's just sticker paper. You can use markers, color pencils, whatever you want to use to make a design or picture.

Yes! Sharpie markers that are permanent, alcohol based ink pads for stamps, and colored pencil work. I recommend doing a test first with the brand you have, since the color will be much more rich and concentrated once it shrinks. I push hard and make sure to color in the area completely.

Yes it will work with colored pencils, but most art instructors will tell you not to. The fear is that the softer lead will be ground down too easily. The auto shut off will help prevent that from happening tho so personally I don't have a problem with my students using it - judiciously.

No, they don't. But you can use gel pens, or colored pencil on black paper.

Yes they can. I enjoyed them very much. I use these for cards, grading papers (making smiling faces, complimenting on their writing and works. I love the colors. They are great for taking notes and they don't bleed thru your paper.

They're too small to use regular chalk. I used a silver metallic pen but can't reuse them. You'll definitely need a fine point pen.

Pencils work best; some pens won't work as well. I'm not sure whether some inks would run if wet.

My 9 year old says colored pencils are best. Markers aren't a good choice bc there are mosaics on both sides of the paper. I have seen him using crayons and they're a little harder to fill the squares accurately.

They write and draw well over dried watercolor. Ive also had success using them with soft pastels, colored pencil, and ink. The only medium I have had bad luck using these with is graphite.

yes, they can be used on black paper. i used them to color in dover design coloring books. i love all the glitter and metallic colors the best.

I typically use pencil when I write in these books, it works the best. I find most ball point pens with thicker ink (most cheap ball points) work well too. Thinner watery ink will bead up and not write.

They would work well with acrylic paint. I don't know about baking them, they are paper.
