Health & Safety Benefits

Peace of Mind Formulation: By using food-grade and non-toxic components, we’ve eliminated the harsh chemicals and heavy metals commonly found in standard watercolor sets.

Sensory & Cognitive Development: Painting with watercolors encourages fine motor control, patience, and visual-spatial skills as children learn to manage water ratios and color blending.

Safe for Sensitive Artists: Our commitment to natural materials makes these paints a gentle choice for children with sensitivities to synthetic dyes or fragrances.

The Honeysticks Mission

Honeysticks was born in a New Zealand preschool to solve a simple problem: art supplies should be safe, sustainable, and high-performing. As a family business powered by parents, we prioritize Pure Safety and Pure Play. From our home in Aotearoa, New Zealand, we ensure that every product—from our signature beeswax crayons to these watercolors—is free from "nasties." We are dedicated to leaving a better world for our children by using recyclable packaging and ethically sourced materials.

How to Use & Creative Ideas

The Magic of Water: Teach your child how a small drop of water "wakes up" the color. Experiment with using more or less water to create different shades and transparency.

Crayon Resist Art: Use your Honeysticks Beeswax Crayons to draw a secret picture, then paint over it with the watercolors to see the wax "resist" the paint and reveal the design.

Color Mixing Laboratory: Use the lid of the metal tin as a mixing tray to combine colors and discover how to create new tints and tones.

Clean and Store: After your art session, simply wipe the palette with a damp cloth and let the colors dry before closing the tin for next time.
