Play Tip!
These crayons are perfect for children who are starting to use a more advanced finger-thumb opposed grasp. A great feature of these crayons is that they can produce a good line with faint pressure - yet they won't break if a child bangs them. They are excellent quality with strong true colour. Of course they are non-toxic, although kids should not snack on them! They are not washable so you don't want them used on the walls.
