Colouring In SOLO Mat | Wheels in Motion in BLUE Pencil Case

How do the mats work?
Our mats are designed to be coloured in using our washable markers. Once they’ve finished, simply wipe or wash the mat, and it’s ready to use again!

What kind of markers should I use?
We recommend using our specially designed non-toxic, washable markers, which are triangular and easier for little hands to hold correctly. These markers have been extensively tested on our tablecloths!

Can I put the mat in the dryer?
No, we do not recommend using the dryer to dry the cloth. We recommend air drying your mat to preserve its quality and waterproof backing.

The markers haven't come out completely?
Try washing again, ensuring the mat isn’t twisted and preventing agitation. If ink remains, lie your cloth out in direct sunlight for an hour or so - the ink is UV sensitive so bleaches out quickly!in the wash?

Are the designs reusable after washing?
Yes! The printed designs remain intact after washing, allowing your child to colour in the same patterns again or experiment with new colours.

Are the mats environmentally friendly?
Yes! The waterproof PUL backing helps protect your mat from spills and messes, making it ideal for mealtime, craft activities, and playtime.

Do the mats stain over time?
If used with washable markers and cleaned promptly, your mat should remain stain-free. However, prolonged exposure to certain dyes may leave light marks over time.

Can I iron the mat?
On a low heat, you can iron the mat on the printed side. Do not iron on the backing side, this will melt the PUL backing!

Can I buy extra washable markers?
Yes! We sell additional sets of our specially designed non-toxic, washable markers so kids can keep colouring again and again.

How long do the mats last?
With proper care, our mats are designed to last for years, providing endless hours of creative fun and family engagement.

Are they suitable for outdoor use?
Yes! They are great for picnics, BBQs, and outdoor play. Just make sure to bring them inside after use to keep them in top condition.

Can I use permanent markers on the mats?
No, permanent markers will not wash out. Only use our Wash Away markers to keep your mat reusable.

How long do the markers last?
With the cap properly replaced after use, the markers should last for many hours of colouring fun. Store them horizontally to keep the ink flowing evenly.

What should I do if the ink dries out?
If a marker dries out, try placing the tip in a small amount of warm water for a few minutes to help revive it. Always cap markers tightly after use.

Will the ink wash out of clothes?
The ink is designed to wash out of most fabrics with a warm/hot wash cycle. For best results, wash clothing as soon as possible after colouring. However, as our markers have only been tested extensively on our tablecloths we are unable to offer any guarantee for ink on clothing or other fabrics and surfaces.

What makes the Colour Me Kids Wash Away Markers different from other washable markers?
Our Wash Away Markers are ultra-washable, designed to easily wash out of our Washable, Reusable, Waterproof colouring in tablecloths, and smudges come off children's skin with minimal effort - making them perfect for mess-free colouring fun! They also feature a triangular barrel, which is ideal for teaching correct pencil grip.

Can the markers stain skin?
The ink is designed to wash off skin easily. However, if applied directly, it may take a few washes to completely fade. Warm water and soap should help remove any lingering ink.

Our tablecloths are designed to be coloured in using our washable markers. Once they’ve finished, simply wipe or wash the tablecloth, and it’s ready to use again!

What kind of markers should I use?
We recommend using our specially designed non-toxic, washable markers, which are triangular and easier for little hands to hold correctly. These markers have been extensively tested on our tablecloths!
