Judy, the opacity factor of the white is exactly what I was talking
about when I was wondering why Prang includes it in their box. It's
really hard to teach kids to use watercolor correctly if the temptation
to mix with white remains in the box. We always throw it away. I would
love to see Prang replace the white with another color or a metallic!
I'm going to write them and ask them to do it.
