I had the same experience with my HSers. So I tossed the pens but saved the
ink for brush work and a special project. I have the kids take drops of ink
and let them drop to the paper, then with straws, they blow the ink all over
and with the fine point markers they are to "find" their drawings and create
from the splatters. We get some very interesting drawings. But, have some
brown bags handy, The over zealous ones tend to hyper-ventilate!
