The team interviewed groups of children who got to try out prototypes and provide their points of view. What were their favourite colours? What did they think of the paper? “The children had very strong and sensible opinions. We also realized how they use drawing and painting gear. For example, if you’re four years old and in the middle of making a drawing, you don’t always think of putting the cap back on the felt pen. So, these pens will last up to three days without caps.” To ensure high quality at the right price, the development work was allowed to take extra time. “What children do and how they do it is super important. That’s why we considered all their feedback and made sure the products met their needs.”

Ratings and reviews
All MALA products are wonderful!ChristineThis pack comes with so many pieces of paper and an assortment of nice colours. Nice thick pieces. It’s a peel off pad. Easy for my son to peel off each piece. This is our second pack so far. Our lil artist loves it!
Great assortment ChristineGood price for several options of paper sizes.
Bulk paperCoraThe paper is nice for our young kids to use. I can see it being to light weight for certain projects or older children.
Really dislike that the pages are attached on one edge. Since they come sealed in plastic, having them attached is completely unnecessary.
Perfect for young artistsAprilThis 1 package has a big range of paper sizes, colours and textures to make art, birthday cards or anything else you can think of.
EnjoyableDanielleI like all the colour options and the thickness. Wish the glue to keep the pads together was a little stronger.
Duvet Cover -looks great!JaclynLove the look of this duvet cover! I prefer soft textiles and this is more of a rougher material, but otherwise really like the colour and aesthetic.
A bit priceyVirginiaA bit pricey for what it is, otherwise happy with the product.

A3 & A4 paper for origami 🇨🇦🇺🇸!Anonymous reviewerIt’s great if you’re in North America and seeking A3 & A4 size paper for origami. Weights are like Astrobrights. I don’t know what else you would use it for. It’d be even better if the A3 came in other colours too.
Beautiful ColoursMarianKids love the vibrant and pastel colours. This pack has them all! The white papers are good for little kids to paint on. They’re not as expensive and thick as normal watercolour papers, but is thick enough to not wrinkle up while they doodle on them, and go through a bunch in one sitting.
AnonymousGrandkids love it! Good quality and variety of colours.
Great valueAnonymous reviewerGreat value for the money....

Story
For all creative little explorers
Drawings all over the kitchen table and coloured felt pens without caps. Does it sound familiar? This is definitely part of living with children, and actually something to be happy about. Painting, drawing, and crafting are in fact not just fun, but important work, and a way for your child to develop. When we created the MÅLA series, we wanted to take children’s creation very seriously and listened to the true experts: the children themselves.
We always start with the child’s perspective to understand what they really need. In this project, we found facts and inspiration in pedagogy focusing on creativity. “We realized that creativity isn’t just any play for children, they’re little researchers who use creation to understand the world around them,” says Ina Tidbeck Sjöblom who was part of creating the MÅLA series.
Made for busy artists
Easy to get started
The MÅLA series has been around for a long time, but it keeps growing and evolving as we see new needs and get new ideas. All parts should be easy to grab and use whenever inspiration strikes. “The child shouldn’t need a parent nearby to start drawing or painting. Being able to do things on your own is an important part of development. You grow with the task.”
Quality
Creative genius comes in small sizes!
Paint! Cut! Draw! The MÅLA series has everything your child needs to let their imagination and creativity flow. Paint brushes with untreated wooden handles are easy to grip, scissors made to fit tiny hands, and colors that are easy to mix and wash off. No nagging your child to put the cap back on – our felt-tip pens survive a full 3 days without caps. Everything’s non-toxic, of course, because we care as much about the next generation of creative minds as you do.
