Cure the Summertime Blues with Crayola

by 170 Comments

Contest Ended. Congratulations to Comment #40 Melanie B for winning the Gift Pack.

Moms and Dads… breathe in! It is all ok. We are in the middle or even the latter of summer vacation with some school districts going back in just 2.5 short weeks. Are you dreaming of this song at night in your sleep?

Too funny… every time I think of that song. Personally, I am always sad to see summer vacation end as I miss my girls so much but that is not to say that I am not always trying to come up with ideas on how to keep the “I’m bored, mommy” comments away.

Enter Crayola in the picture this beautiful summer. My girls absolutely love anything to do with art. They are constantly drawing beautiful pictures for my hubby and I and even the grandparents as well. They really know how to tug at mom’s ole heartstrings when they are in trouble with a beautiful picture that says I Love You! When the Crayola box of fun arrived at our house a couple of weeks ago, the girls literally jumped for joy.

We have took several road trips this summer so to have a fun art project that will go on the road with them as well, they were all smiles. The Crayola Mess-Free was just one of the best inventions ever as I do not have to worry about the girls coloring on the walls, the car seats, or their bodies. They can just create art and let their imagination run wild. The color markers that come with the mess-free set only appears when the markers or paints meet Color Wonder paper, so there are no clothes to wash or hands to clean. Let’s take a journey through the wonderful Crayola products that we were allowed to review the past two weeks.

* Crayola Color Wonder Lap Desk provides a large, hard-top surface for kids to create on the go. The sturdy desk has a built-in handle and a soft detachable pillow that can be used as a storage unit for Color Wonder markers and paper. The Lap Desk is equipped with 12 re-stickable pieces of Color Wonder paper to keep kids’ drawings in place and 5 Color Wonder mess-free mini markers in red, orange, yellow, green and blue.

* Crayola Color Wonder Fingerpaints & Paper make the once impossible possible – fingerpainting in the car! The set includes clear, fast-drying gels that feel just like traditional fingerpaint. The set comes with 5 mess-free colors (red, yellow, green, blue and orange) in a hand-shaped storage container, a built-in finger cleaning sponge and 12 extra-wide sheets of Color Wonder paper. When kids are finished painting, they simply snap the fingerprint lids closed and paint stays fresh and ready to use again!

* Crayola Color Wonder Markers and Paper includes 5 Color Wonder markers and a 24-page Color Wonder drawing pad where your kids can create anything they want while you’re on the road!

* Crayola Color Wonder Stow & Go Studio provides a solid, compact drawing surface with stay-put clips that can secure a single piece of paper or an entire Color Wonder activity book. Kids will enjoy creating with mess-free Color Wonder markers that make colors magically appear on special paper and reveal special hidden surprises.

* Crayola Color Wonder Story Stampers includes 5 Color Wonder markers in red, blue, green, purple and orange, a Color Wonder stamp pad, 6 sea creature stamps, and an 18-page coloring pad with undersea background settings. Each setting is unique, so every page will inspire a different fish tale just waiting to be told! Kids’ imaginations will take them beneath the sea as they stamp color sea creatures using the colorless Color Wonder stamp pad to create innovative stories and scenarios then can then color in. It’s like high tide for your imagination!

As you can see, all these products just let your child’s imagination run wild and let them have such a wonderful time. The best part is it gets them away from using electronics all the time.

WIN IT!
