43,95

Do you have a little artist(s) at home to whom no paper and crayons are enough? Designed to last even a full school year for a smaller classrom,  this 64-piece Crayon rocks will surely be enough for a while! The set contains 4 pieces each of the 16 favourite vibrant colours.

We love Crayon Rocks® not only because they are made from a natural material (soy wax) and absolutely safe for little ones unlike many other crayons, but also because – due to their pebble-like shapes – they are very beneficial. They were designed to strengthen young children’s hand muscles and perfect their pencil grip, making their hands ready for handwriting. Their ergonomic shape makes their use also effortless, which brings confidence and joy for children in creating colourful art.

    About the product:

    • Article number: 1656-3950
    • Brand: Crayon Rocks
    • The set contains 64 crayons in 16 summer colours (red, pink, blue, sky, green, grass, egg yolk yellow, sunshine yellow, orange, peach, purple, light purple, brown, tan, black, grey) in a sturdy box with a slide top and a 16 cell tray to keep colours separate.
    • Crayon Rocks® are produced in the USA from locally and ecologically grown soybeans and colored with natural mineral pigments. They are non-toxic and conform to the strictest toy safety regulations, including the European EN71-3.
    • The crayons measure app. 3,2 x 1,9 cm. The size was very carefully chosen by special education teachers and occupational therapists to fit the grip of children between the ages of 3 and 8 and promote a tripod grip.
    • The crayons are long lasting and durable. Although appearing smaller, volume is actually equal to that of major brand stick crayons.
    • Please note that the white dusty haze, sometimes seen on the surface of the crayons are totally normal. They are called “bloom” and it occurs with any soy product, often seen on chocolate, too. It has to do with the fats in the soy wax.  Once the crayons are rubbed or used, that tends to go away and not reappear.
    • Recommended age by the manufacturer: 3+.
    • Warning! Small pieces can pose choking hazard (if inhaled), so please do not give it to children under the recommended age. 

    Why Crayon Rocks®?

    We love Crayon Rocks® not only because they are made from a natural material and absolutely safe for little ones unlike many other crayons sold as stationary (and not toys), but also because their pebble-like shape make them really unique. They were desined and developed by a ‘special needs’ teacher, and it is almost effortless to use them. They encourage children to use thumb, first and second fingers in a tripod grip – so they naturally strengthen the pencil grip, and the muscles of a child, which is a really important first step in the development of future writing and cognitive skills. They are widely used by occupational therapists and preschool teachers, also with special-need children, in many countries. Crayon Rocks® are made of soy wax, which is a softer and cremier wax than ordinary parrafin, therefore it is not only for line work, but also for layering and blending colours. They do not leave dirty spots on hands and cloths. Check our entire product range of Crayon Rocks in our store here.
