Crayola Crayons By Rae777 By Rae777 on Mar 04, 2009 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

I have long been the fan of Crayola crayons. I have tried other brands that we're cheaper but the quality of the crayons was poor as they did not color as well as the Crayola brand of crayons. Crayola crayons color very nicely and smoothly.

The nice thing about Crayola crayons is that you can get them in different size boxes so you never have to over buy. They come in boxes of eight, 16, 24, 48, 64 and now there is the Colossal Force 120 count box that comes with a surprise in it. There are well over 100 different colors. The colors range from the usual red, orange, blue to newer colors such as asparagus, almond, wild blue yonder, razzle dazzle rose, purple mountain's majesty, macaroni and cheese and screaming green. My nieces were recently surprised to find that Crayola has allowed children to name some colors and those include names such as famous, fun in the sun, best friends, bear hug, happily ever after, awesome, giving tree and super happy.

Overall, these crayons are great in my opinion and it's the only brand I would buy.

Crayola has a fantastic website that includes something for everyone from parents to children to educators. You can even buy their products over there.
