Crayola is the gold standard for crayons. It's the most popular and best-known brand, and although we take its superior quality for granted, its large assortment might amaze you.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Check out Crayola's many different sized packages. The smallest box available is an 8 pack ($.60), and the largest is the Giant Chest of Crayons ($8) with 128 crayons. Many sizes fall between these two extremes.

  2. Step 2

    Notice that Crayola has what you would consider regular crayons as well as some specialized crayons. Kid's First Jumbo Washable Crayons ($2) are designed for beginning artists. They are large, easy to hold and easy to clean up after. Growing Kids Washable Large Crayons ($1.79) are for children who are still young, but have some experience with crayons.

  3. Step 3

    Look for Techno Brite crayons ($1) if you want some brighter colors.

  4. Step 4

    See that some Crayola crayons come in special containers. The Discovery Tin: Ocean Dive ($2.79) houses crayons in an aquatic designed tin. The Treasure Chest ($2.79) contains crayons in a plastic treasure chest.

  5. Step 5

    Look for other specialized Crayola crayons - scented crayons, sparkle crayons, neon crayons and pastel crayons.

  6. Step 6

    Purchase crayons from the shopping list below. Crayola crayons are available from a variety of online and local retailers.

Tips & Warnings
  • Give a coloring book and storage box with crayons you give as a gift.
  • You needn't worry about the quality of crayons made by Crayola. Unlike some other brands, you can be sure it will have bright colors and will color smoothly.
