Crayola Washable Markers


Crayola Washable Markers : If your child loves to color, then chances are, she has dozens, if not hundreds of broken and worn down Crayons littering a plastic tub somewhere while your child is begging you for a new set. Thing is, kids are quite hard on their crayons and it isn’t long before that new stick of burnt orange is either broken or worn to a nubb. But in this economy, what can a parent do other than buy their budding Picaso a new set of Crayons? The answer in the long run is the Crayola Crayon Maker.

The Crayon Maker is a simple concept. Take your old crayon odds and ends and collect them in the maker to meld down and mold into a new stick. Kids can create replacement crayons or even combine multiple colors to make their own, unique, shade. And the new design allows kids to watch the process from melting down to molding thanks to the clear, plastic dome. And parents dont’ have to worry about the heat element or the melted parafin wax burning their little fingers as the Crayon Maker won’t open until the crayons themselves have cooled.

Like your daughter’s Easy Bake Oven, the Crayon Maker derives it’s heat from a single light bulb.

Winner of the Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Platinum Award.

Now if they could only figure out a toy which can recycle used coloring books!
