Product Information
Full details
The Aquarellum Junior Parrots kit is designed for children aged 6 and up who want to create professional-looking watercolor art without the frustration of color bleeding. Using a unique wax-resist technology, the set allows users to achieve crisp, clean lines on high-quality vellum paper, though it requires adult supervision to manage the watercolor inks and clean up properly. It is an ideal indoor activity for young artists looking to experiment with gradients and color mixing.

FAQs
What is the recommended age for this kit?
This kit is recommended for children aged 6 years and older.
Can the inks be washed out of clothing?
No, the watercolor inks are designed to be high-quality and may stain fabrics, so it is recommended to wear an apron or old clothes during use.
Does the set include everything needed to paint?
Yes, it includes nine inks, a brush, a palette, a dropper, and the paper designs.
Can I buy more paper separately?
The kit is designed as a single consumer unit, but additional Aquarellum sets can be purchased for more designs.
Is the wax outline visible?
The wax outline is mostly invisible, allowing the design to look like a standard drawing until the ink is applied and the wax creates the distinct boundary.
How many pieces are in the box?
The kit contains 13 pieces in total.
Troubleshooting
Ink is pooling on top of the paper
You have likely applied too much water or ink; use a paper towel to gently dab the excess liquid off the surface.
Colors are not appearing vibrant
Ensure you are mixing enough concentrated ink with the water in your palette, or try applying a second layer once the first is dry.
Paintbrush is stiff after use
Soak the brush in warm water for a few minutes and gently work the bristles with your fingers to remove dried pigment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the Aquarellum Junior set is straightforward as no assembly is required. Before you begin, protect your workspace with a mat or newspaper, as the watercolor inks are permanent on fabric.
To maintain the kit:
- Always rinse the paintbrush thoroughly with clean water between color changes.
- Ensure ink bottles are tightly capped after each session to prevent evaporation.
- Wash the palette with warm water and mild soap after use to prevent ink buildup.
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the wax-resist quality of the paper.
