Outdoor Fun With Crayola *Giveaway*
October 9, 2009 by Caryn
This giveaway is now closed. Thanks for stopping by. The winners are Ann F and LT. Congrats!
Children want and need to be outside, soaking in the sights, sounds, and smells of nature. Along with the physical activity children require, they also need creative stimulation. My husband and I try to encourage both in our home (my husband’s been the more active one with my son lately).
If you’re a parent, then you probably have something with the name Crayola on it. I know we have everything from crayons and markers to toddler toys. What’s great about Crayola is that they don’t just sell products. They offer ways to use their products to help make the most out of your child’s creative experience. The site is packed with coloring pages, craft ideas, games, tips, and more.
We had an opportunity to check out Crayola’s 3-D Giant Chalk Set, Window Crayons, and Washable Sidewalk Crayons, courtesy of the company. The 3-D Giant Chalk Set is really neat, but a bit too young for my son. He LOVES using the chalk on his Art Easel. The chalk is HUGE, but he’s still able to draw and color with it. The chalk is double-sided and includes two different colors. Once your child has drawn their picture, they put on the glasses and watch their creation come to life. The chalk set comes with two sets of glasses and a how-to book which includes tons of ideas for using the product with your child. Retails for $11.99.
And if you’re looking for something a little less “chalky” that a toddler can use, check out the Washable Sidewalk Crayons. I like the way they color (nice and smooth and vibrant) and they’re a little easier for smaller tots to manage since they’re not as big as the chalk. Retails for $6.99.
Halloween is in just a few weeks, and decorating with Window Crayons is a fun, economic way to get your child involved in getting your home festive for the season. They go on smooth and wash off easily. Plus…they’re not messy! They come in a pack of five and retail for $4.99.
Crayola has a TON of products to help you and your child engage in creative fun! Visit the site for projects, tips, and more!
Win It! One of you will win a pack of Washable Sidewalk Crayons and another will win a pack of 3-D Giant Chalk Set. Simply leave me a comment with a fun activity you found on the site that you’d like to do with your child. Comments will close on October 24, 2009 at 10 PM PST. One comment per person, please (unless you do the extra credit). US residents only. Duplicates and comments not including the above information will be disqualified. Comments are moderated. If you don’t see your comment in a reasonable amount of time, send me an email. Bloggers and non-bloggers may enter. If you don’t want to leave your email address, please be sure to check back for my announcement on the winner. Please note that winners must respond within 48 hours of being announced/contacted or another winner will be drawn.
