Pastels

When kids open the heavy board covers of this miniature portfolio they'll find a small, information-packed, spiral-bound instruction book attached to its inside front cover and a pad of art paper fastened to the back cover. The instruction book demonstrates the basics of pastel sketching. Attached to the portfolio's inner spine is a box of pastel chalks in various colors for making illustrations. Here's a great take-along activity kit to keep children creatively occupied on car trips or for quiet-time fun.
