Why we love it

Arts and crafts are the perfect way for your child to express his/her creativity! These crayons are the BEST because the shape of the crayons makes it easy for a little child to hold and draw with.

Features and Skills

• Beginning artists think BIG! They love to see huge splashes of color cover the page. These chunky crayons are perfect for making a big impact and perfect for little hands to hold.
• Your child will begin with a few simple shapes—first squiggles, then vertical lines, horizontal lines and circles.
• Soon your little Picasso will learn to copy or trace shapes (use a paper cup or cookie cutters for him/her to trace around). He’ll/she’ll also begin to use more than just his/her favorite color. You can draw a rainbow to show your child what different colors look like next to each other.
• In no time your child will begin to use simple shapes to draw recognizable pictures. Don’t label his pictures for him/her. Instead ask your little one to tell you what he/she drew. You may be surprised at the answer you get.
• Teach your child numbers by writing them on a piece of paper. Have your toddler repeat the names of the numbers with you. Then see if he/she can copy the numbers you have drawn.  As he/she gains confidence with number recognition you can say a number aloud and ask him/her to draw it.
• You can also work on letter recognition with your child by writing them on a piece of paper. Have your toddler repeat the names of the letters with you. Then see if he/she can copy the letters you have drawn.  As he/she gains confidence, you can say a letter aloud and ask him/her to draw it.
• Reinforce this learning by drawing a picture that goes with the letter, like D for dog or C for cat.  Then have your child color in the picture by asking for a specific color and see if he/she gets it right.
• Your child can collaborate with you or a friend to create one picture. Each child can use a different color or create consecutive lines. Now that’s teamwork!
• Or you can use these Chunky Crayons to play games on paper, like tic-tac-toe.
