This happens because of something called “contrast.” White is already a very light colour, so when you draw with yellow, which is also a light colour, it doesn’t look very different from the white background. It’s like trying to see a light yellow flower in a field of white snow – it can be a bit tricky.
On the other hand, colours like blue and red are darker than yellow. So, when you draw with a blue or red crayon on a white paper, they stand out more because they create a bigger difference or contrast between the colour and the white background. It’s like drawing with a dark blue crayon on the white paper – it’s easier to see because it looks quite different from the white.
