Learners may use any drawing tools that they like: markers, crayons, colored pencils, gel pens, digital, etc.

Here are the materials that I use:
-Art Markers: I use sharpies for most of my coloring, but I also sometimes use dual tip marker pens that have a brush tip and a fine tip. Any markers that your learner likes should be fine, but I do suggest having a variety of colors. This particular drawing uses red, light pink, brown (tan or peach are also okay - any color you want your learner to use for the nutcracker's face and hands), gold, and black.

-Marker Paper: This can be any size your learner likes to use, as long as it is durable enough for marker drawing. There are usually drawing pads that say "marker and watercolor paper" that can be found in many stores!

-If you are using a pencil, make sure it is a good one! I use the Ticonderoga pencils because they are a lot harder to break, but any number 2 pencil is fine. I also suggest a really good eraser! The pink erasers or a gum eraser are both amazing. Other erasers work, but not as well.

Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

Parental supervision or guidance is suggested for inexperienced or younger learners. Even though most markers will wash off of skin, surfaces, and clothing be sure that your learner knows how to keep markers on their artwork. It is suggested that your learner wear clothing that you don't mind getting marker on, and that your learner is in an area that can be wiped down. I suggest putting newspaper or parchment paper under the area where your learner will draw in case of accidental drawing.
