AAkron Color Changing Mood Pencil with Eraser - Graphite Pencil - Made of quality wood, Set of 24, Assorted Colors - MADE IN USA

These color change fairly easily and are pretty good contrast. Only the blue and red ones aren't super; the blue turns into teal and the red turns into a sort of orangey color. Purple turns to pink, green has yellow, orange turns yellow, red turns orange, blue turns sort of a lighter teal. If they don't seem super-high contrast initially, we found that putting them in the fridge for 3-5 min seems to ensure all of the pencils reset back to their "normal" color. Warm hands work best, but if your hands are a bit cold, rubbing the pencil also works due to friction. Pretty good!

it definitely changes color

Sharpened well, wrote well… They are the fuzzy kind of wood when sharpened, if you know what I mean, but the lead didn’t loosen or anything. Mine don’t seem to warm up as vibrant as some of the other reviews I’ve seen, so I wonder if that varies… but overall seems like a pretty good product 👍

This product is a great value for the money, made of great quality, durable, easy to sharpen and easy erasability, comfortable grip and the color-changing effect is super cool and unique! My daughter kept putting it in front of our portable heater to get the colors to change. I wish I would of taken a video/photos, but she took these into school to give one to each student in her class room. I will for sure be purchasing this product again in the near future though! I highly recommend this product also!

Pretty neat pencils. Need warm hands to get the color to change. The lead seems to be a good quality.

Most of the colors changed to something different enough from the original that it was fascinating and fun to see the change. A couple of the color differences were slight so they were a bit disappointing. It takes quite warm hands to effect the change and it does not linger as I thought it would. The kids. . . love 'em!

I first bought one bag for my son's birthday goodie bag and then I loved them so much after trying them out that I bought two more bags!! One for my daughter's birthday goodie bag next year (she has a bigger class than 24) and then the leftovers were for me. They are just so fun. Unlike the review that says they don't work, I had no problem as long as my hands were warm and I held onto them for at least 5-10 seconds. There are some colors with more obvious changes and I think it was the dark green or dark blue that didn't really have drastic changes but the purple that changes to pink is amazing and the orange that changes to vibrant yellow is so pretty. I highly recommend and am considering ordering more to just hand out to friends. I've become a color changing pencil hoarder.

Did not color change. Too expensive not to work. Returned

They work as described.

Every year I order these pencils as a gift for my students. I was supposed to receive a packet of 24 pencils, but the bag was broken and only received 20 pencils.
