if a child were to use these, would the color from the page rub all over their hand, sleeve, etc?

No, the pencils come with a plastic sleeve that protects from rubbing. Even without the sleeve, the color doesn't transfer easily to skin or clothing.

My daughter doesn't seem to have any problems with them being covered. It's a soft cover, easily pressed and used.

Yes they do but the pages are weak as the pages rip easily and also thinly made. I wouldn't get this again. Hope this helps!

Yes! Just make sure each sheet has been thoroughly cleaned, dried AND ironed because any fold, bend or wrinkle can cause discomfort during use. Hope that helps!

The only problem I had was one student who wiped her messy paint covered hand across her apron. The regular bumping up onto the paper or brush during regular use did not bleed through. I guess it would depend on the messiness level of the kids. We used the smocks for over a year with just the one situation.

Good question. I don't think so but would consider it a judgement call on the parents part. I don't have children but did use this product with my niece and nephew. They are 4 and 8. They loved them. The heat generated is hot but not scolding by any means.

That is my understanding, yes. They have a relatively high rubbing alcohol content, which can irritate sensitive skin. I've never worn gloves and never experienced any irritation. Nor have I ever known anyone to experience problems. I would recommend following the advice on the lid sticker--don't use on baby's bottoms! I can imagine that would definitely cause irritation.

I did not use these my 12 year old daughter did but I can tell you she made t-shirts (cotton) and there was absolutely no bleeding of colors at all and the washed very well, however they do make the fabric a little stiff after being washed.

I would not stick my hands in hot oil with these gloves, the are not water or oil proof and I would imagine you would get a nasty burn.

Not unless they have a papery like surface. Otherwise, it just wipes off. Regular sharpies would probably be better for that.

It depends on how often your child(ren) uses them. Also, they are constantly coming out with new styles of bands such as tie dye, glow in the dark, and glitter that your child will then want to get.

DO NOT USE ON TODDLERS unsupervised! and seniors with thin more fragile skin. If you are thinking about using them for a age group with thin or tender skin like a toddler or senior, put them in a Pot Holder pouch, this reduces chances of burning, check often, if the skin turns pink, remove as the product needs more padding. It's to hot for that person with out more padding. Each of the different products they make rise to a different heat level. The large 18 hr one reaches up to 140 degrees, and can blister unprotected skin. I use the small hand ones, but I still put them in a Pot Holder pouch. Which in turn I pin in place over the area of my lumbar that hurts, and I can't get fixed. It's like having a 24 hr heating pad. If I didn't use the Hot Hands I would not be mobile, as it reduces the pain level. The smaller hand size do not get as hot as the larger ones. Not tried the ones for feet or that stick to your skin. As a senior, my skin is fragile, so I steer clear of anything that adheres to my skin. Hope my experience with Hot Hands has helped answer your questions. They are safe to use, read the directions though. Be aware of the fragility of the skin of the person who is using them. I can handle the small ones with out padding for a short while with my hands, but to put it on the more tender skin of my back, I use the Pot Holder to mute the heat to a lower level, which makes it just like low on a heating pad that you plug in. The key is the person's skin fragility, because even on low a plug in heating pad can burn a person. Which is why the newer ones have a 2 hr timer in them.If they are going into mittens, you could wrap them in some thing like a wash cloth to mute the amount of heat. Keep checking at area, if it is pink it is going into the burn phase.

I still use my finger most of the time, so the only other stylus I have used with it has been one for the kids -- a triangle crayon shaped larger stylus. I haven't had any problems with that or using just my finger. :)

Yes, the colors are so intense that my daughter preferred using these over colored pencils or markers even in 6th grade. I believe there is a peachy color that would work for Caucasian skin and some variation or two on tan/brown that could work for other races. I am going off memory, though.

I can measure it later, but most likely not. They are small,a regular sized coloring book may fit curved/bent & half out, and then the small toy within the curve possibly.

You can use charcoal. Or anything. It works pretty nicely. Though it may smear on to another page. It won't bleed through.

Absolutely! They feel like normal paper on the front, so markers, pens or even crayons would be fine to use. Depending on the age group of the kids, you may have to help them peel the back off if they make shapes and cut their sticker out. Have fun!
