I can't believe it's not washable even though it claims to be. I only let him paint/color in the kitchen so it's okay for him to make a mess. He's been liking water colors a lot lately. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-your-lo-color-with-markersunsupervised#post-426509 Sat, 01 Dec 2012 00:45:26 +0000 banana 426509@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: omg sharpies?

It comes out of everything and wipes off walls too, so that's why. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-your-lo-color-with-markersunsupervised#post-426441 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 23:41:52 +0000 Mrs. Pen 426441@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>oh no!!! I'm so sorry!!! my little sister did that, but she used sharpies on the couch!! my mom was sooo mad she was crying :(</p> <p>that's why I've come to love color wonder! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-your-lo-color-with-markersunsupervised#post-426427 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 23:31:15 +0000 sarac 426427@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hell to the no. Crayons and colored pencils only, and the crayons are pretty closely supervised. The pencils she mostly prefers to take in and out of the box, anyway, she's a little young still to really color. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-your-lo-color-with-markersunsupervised#post-426211 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 21:40:27 +0000 chopsuey 426211@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always supervise. She will draw on anything! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-your-lo-color-with-markersunsupervised#post-426196 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 21:37:53 +0000 mrsmate 426196@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Absolutely I supervise when DD is coloring. So far it's only crayons. I watch her like a hawk! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-let-your-lo-color-with-markersunsupervised#post-425973 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 20:15:39 +0000 banana 425973@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I dont' know what I was thinking. I recently bought my son an art easel and last night I set up it for him. He got super excited and wanted to draw on it right away. So I gave him a washable marker (green). I went into the kitchen to put away some dishes and I came out and saw that he scribbled alllllll over our couch cushions! Our couch is light tan (almost white)! I died. It's still green. It won't come off! I thought it was washable!</p> <p>I guess I shouldn't have let him color by himself. Do you always supervise your LOs when they color? </p>
