Comments about Lillian Vernon Set of 12 Extra Pencils - Primary:
I ordered the pencils as personal gifts for my son's birthday party. The kids were jumping with joy. They were excited to see their name on the pencils. As an Educator, the pencils remind the child how to spell their name.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Set of 12 Extra Pencils - Primary:
I ordered 2 sets of pencils, one set had 8 purple pencils in it. I wouldn't have expected to see purple in the primary set, especially since a pastel set is offered. (these were for my son)
Comments about Lillian Vernon Set of 12 Extra Pencils - Primary:
I gave 2 12-packs of these pencils, personalized with teacher's name and school year, to my daughter's teacher. They come in handy as awards or for when a child forgets/breaks/loses a pencil and were really appreciated. Thanks, Lillian Vernon, for quick & easy & FREE personalization!
Comments about Lillian Vernon Set of 12 Extra Pencils - Primary:
We buy these every year and use them in the classroom. It helps my son to tell his pencils from the others. No more, "Hey, that pencil is mine!" because YOU KNOW whose it is by the name on it! They cost a little more than pencils from [...], but it is worth it when you think of how many times a year you have to replace those that are mistaken by others to be their own!
Comments about Lillian Vernon Set of 12 Extra Pencils - Primary:
I bought these pencils because I could put more than just a name on them...I have a friend who has a little slogan with his business and that was what I had stamped on the pencils...I felt it was an idea that showed some thinking on my part.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Set of 12 Extra Pencils - Primary:
My son needed pencils with his name for his first grade class. As he has an unusual name, I knew I would never find it in the store. These pencils are perfect and I will order them for my younger son when it is his turn. He also has an unsual name.

Another way to add to a good school year. It would be wonderful if all children could have a personalized pencil. (This comment from a retired teacher!)

Comments about Lillian Vernon Set of 12 Extra Pencils - Primary:
These were the perfect solution to my son entering second grade. He is always losing his pencils in school or kids borrow them and he never gets them back. He got a kick out of it too. Thanks for a great product.

I have been ordering these pencils since my own children were in school. Now I ordering them for my niece and nephew so that they can identify their pencils in the classroom.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Set of 12 Extra Pencils - Primary:
We got 2-3 of each color. I know that the title of the product isn't "for boys" but I didn't want to get my son the pastels so I got these. He has 2 purple pencils. It's not too big of a deal because I will use them myself, but perhaps give the option of colors? Thanks!
Comments about Lillian Vernon Set of 12 Extra Pencils - Primary:
These got here in no time, I was surprised. They turned out great my kids love them,
Thanks
Comments about Lillian Vernon Set of 12 Extra Pencils - Primary:
The pencils arrived and they look great. However, my daughter and I were both frustrated by the fact that we did not receive all the colors that were pictured in the catalog. We received many of some colors but only one or none of others. The catalog photo definitely leads you to believe that you will receive a set of pencils in all the colors pictured there.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Set of 12 Extra Pencils - Primary:
Would like to see equal amount of each color.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Set of 12 Extra Pencils - Primary:
[...] The pencils, however, were of poor quality and the personalization is so light you can't read it on most of the pencils.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Set of 12 Extra Pencils - Primary:
MY GRAND KIDS LOVE THE PENCILS WITH THEIR NAMES ON THEM. A LITTLE "BACK TO SCHOOL" GIFT TO START THE YEAR.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Set of 12 Extra Pencils - Primary:
My name is spelled so different from the way that everybody else spells it, so my name isn't spelled right on anything... UNTIL NOW!!! I love my new pencils. My name is spelled absolutly right, 20/20 perfect. Thanks!!

They are bright and colorful and have Your Childs

Great idea! Every year when my son goes back to school I have to sit and label each individual pencil with his name. This product saved me so much time, and energy, and he loves them.

These pencils make great teacher gifts.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Set of 12 Extra Pencils - Primary:
I got these pencils personalized for my 5 yr. old who is starting kindergarten. He is a good sharer, but really wants his things back when the borrower is done. Having his name on the pencils really help with him getting his pencils back..and helps reenforce the sharing.
These actually even help with my 2 sons sharing too!
Comments about Lillian Vernon Set of 12 Extra Pencils - Primary:
It was nice to find some inexpensive personalized pencils. The erasers work well too. Some other pencils have cheap erasers that only smudge the pencil marks. These erasers actually remove the pencil marks so they are great for back-to-school. I will definitely order more!

They were the perfect back to school product for the money!

This product works well in my second grade classroom. Helps students keep track of their own pencils! Makes a great holiday gift. I have even given them as gifts to other teachers--personalized with their names.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Set of 12 Extra Pencils - Primary:
I ordered these pencils with the impression that there were 6 colors in the assortment(2 of each). I received 7 Yellow, 3 Orange and 2 Green. I purchased them for 2 people hoping to spit the order. Not possible with the assortment sent. (same thing happened with my order of pastel colors.)
Comments about Lillian Vernon Set of 12 Extra Pencils - Primary:
I was so glad to find this item, my daughter finally has something with her name on it that we didn't have to create ourselves.

my 7 year old daughter loves seeing her name on her pencils
Comments about Lillian Vernon Set of 12 Extra Pencils - Primary:
These are perfect because my daughter has a name that is not found on pencils. She gets so upset when sh doesn't see her name. When she saw this she was the happiest little girl and that made me so happy!!!
Comments about Lillian Vernon Set of 12 Extra Pencils - Primary:
Once I found out that these are #2 pencils the kind all teachers need the children to use, I ordered them 3 years ago for my son when he was just starting kindergarten. He just loves them, and every new school year we order more. Now he is starting 3rd grade and he looks forward to taking his newest pencils back to school. THANK YOU.

Have ordered for years. Used as part of my wedding favors (I am a teacher). Have purchased for Kindergarten, through my High School kids, and as gifts.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Set of 12 Extra Pencils - Primary:
Having pencils with their names on them, allows them to keep up with their own pencil and helps to eliminate other students that may have sticky hands.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Set of 12 Extra Pencils - Primary:
I ordered these pencils a few years ago for my niece - just ordered them again for my own son. Still the great pencils I remember. The personalization is bright and easily readable. It helps my son to be more organized and keep track of his things at school. They are great!

Comments about Lillian Vernon Set of 12 Extra Pencils - Primary:
As a child my grandmother would buy these for us every back to school. This was before you could find personalized things on every corner. I now buy them for my kids and enjoy them the same. They are fun and durable! My son keep his around to see if he can use it until part of his name is gone!!!

My son is not a big fan of arts and crafts or drawings. But the moment he got these pencils he can't stop drawing!! For once, I made a right purchasing decision :)
Comments about Lillian Vernon Set of 12 Extra Pencils - Primary:
I've ordered these several times, as a back-to-school item, a just-starting school item, a teacher thank you (we put something like Mrs.Smith's Class... that way she can give/loan them to students), I even got a set for me that reads Mom's pencils - they still disappear but they come back more often now :)

It helps the children to identify their supplies at school or wherever.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Set of 12 Extra Pencils - Primary:
I use to buy them for my sons who are now adults. I got these for my daughter who is 10. She used them for school and her letter from sleep away camp says - she has all of her pencils left - because her name is on them. They are as wonderful and unique now as they were 10 years ago.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Set of 12 Extra Pencils - Primary:
I was so disappointed with this order. I've ordered these same pencils several times in the past, and they were great. This time, I bought four sets of pencils with two different names, and all sets had bad personalization. The names were hardly visible on some, and there were some letters that were so faint you could hardly see them.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Set of 12 Extra Pencils - Primary:
These pencils made a great gift for our son entering Jr. Kindergarten and my husband really enjoyed the personalized messages from the children for Father's Day.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Set of 12 Extra Pencils - Primary:
We used these pencils for a family reunion. My family like to play card games, were a pad of paper and a pencil are a must. These were a hit with the pencil colloecter in the famly as well.
Comments about Lillian Vernon Set of 12 Extra Pencils - Primary:
As a parent of a disorganized 7th grader, I orderd the pencils just to avoid the weekly notes about my son needing more pencils. I knew I was sending at least 5 to 10 pencils to school each week. For some reason, he continued to lose them. I ordered the personalized pencils out of desperation...but I have to say, so far it's working. The only thing I can think of adding would be a retractable carabiner clip so my son can keep one attached to him at all times.
