The markers I use I get in china on amazon as they are so much cheaper then the copic which sell for almost €4 each as they are professional markers used for illustration work. The China version gives the kids a good feel for how to use them. Here is the link to amazon that I use to purchase it takes about 4 to 6 weeks to get them in. The 80 pack is the best value.

Colour pencils.
Derwent
Intenses Pencils watercolour by Derwent.
These pencils are water based
Derwent pencils have been manufactured by The Cumberland Pencil Company in Cumbria in the UK since 1832 and is now a brand under ACCO UK Ltd.
The Inktense pencils are marketed as Derwent’s “best watercolour pencils ever”, capable of laying down “permanent colours after washes and drying,even on silk and cotton”.
The big selling point of this particular range of 72 colours is that the artist can go from “pencil to ink in just one wash” to “combine the vibrancy of inks with the subtlety of pencils”
You can use them dry but mix them with water and the colour turns into vibrant ink.
