This takes me back...


Stumbled on this resource the other day: Color Chart for Crayola Crayons. Includes crayon names and color codes for 120 distinct hues. Very useful for design, or just curiosity. Check it out!

I remember when I always had to have the whole crayon set. I couldn't use my coloring book unless I had every single color. Ah, the fun days.

I was so excited to buy my daughter's first box of Crayola crayons. The smell, the crayon sharpener all brought back fond memories of coloring in huge coloring books. I soon realized that Crayola crayons are better than any other crayon brands.

For those with young children in their lives a great place to visit is the Crayola Crayon Factory in PA. The factory consists of an assembly line where children can see crayons and markers produced, and get free samples. Children can also do over 10 crafts at craft stations located throughout the factory. We took our three children there this summer and had a great time. The admission ticket also includes admission to the National Canal Museum in the same building as the Crayola Factory.

Awesome site! Reminds of a Giant Sized Spider-Man coloring book my cousin had when we were kids.

Nuts, it doesn't have the classic names. I always try to tell people that my favorite crazon was Maze (Maize?), and they look at me like I'm crazy.
