Can anybody recommend some crayons for older kids-5/6?

I'd like some quite pointy,vibrant,don't break easy.

Berol Verithik colouring pencils. They're fab; like a cross between a crayon and a pencil. They are long so can snap with too much pressure but sharpen up in a pencil sharpener.

Staples Twist-up crayons are great, quite pointy and in a plastic casing so never snap. Great colours and good coverage on the paper too. Dh got them so I'm unsure of the cost but think they were fairly cheap
