I bought this product for my grandchildren and a great-niece. All of them, like to do arts and crafts projects. All are under the age of 10 yrs. old. Each one of them loved the crayons and (without any prompt from an adult) looked to find a crayon that matched their skin tone. This is a wonderful, fun, self-exploring educational product!
I am so glad that Crayola finally came out with the Colors of the World set! I can't wait for it to come in paint, colored pencils, and markers. Please create these in a class pack. I have always bought the previous Multi-Cultural markers and crayons, but it didn't have all the colors that I needed for my students. I have a very diverse group of art students I teach and I am very excited to share these with them!
These crayons are perfect. What I love the most about them is the reaction of the adult that I give these to, (the parent of the intended recipient). As each person looks at the box, you can see a look of realization on their face. We talk about how the choices for skin color has always been limited and I ask the adult, imagine how a child of color feels? . Thank you so much!!!1
I bought packs of these crayons to go as stocking stuffers for the kids in my family this Christmas. All the girls are in ballet and wear their true nude tights so I am excited to see pictures of them that really look like them. This definitely has helped me when explaining to them how even though Black comes in different shades, we all look beautiful no matter what. Thank you CRAYOLA!!
