About them: Our company has inspired artistic creativity in children for more than 100 years – since the first box of Crayola crayons rolled off the assembly line in 1903. Since then, the Crayola brand has grown into a portfolio of innovative art tools, crafting activities, and creative toys that give kids the power to express all that inspires them as they explore, discover, play, pretend, and dream.
My kids and I are huge fans of Crayola products. I was pretty excited when we had the opportunity to review a copy we had never heard about before and include them in our Holiday Gift Guide this year. The first was the Color & Erase Mat. This mat is so cool! It is for ages three and up and measures 2 feet by 3 feet. It is a completely reusable mat that comes with the Color & Erase Mat, 4 Colorpop Washable Markers, a Refillable Eraser and a Wipe Cloth. My kids and I absolutely love it! I love that this Color & Erase Mat has built in storage to keep everything when not in use and that it rolls up so you can store it away or take it with you on the go! My kids love that they can create drawing after drawing, write out story after story and even practice writing their letters and shapes again and again without having to get up at all. You use the markers to draw on the mat then use the eraser to erase it over and over again. You can use the wipe to wipe any residue before drawing again. It is a great tool that helps your child use their imagination and creativity and sure to keep them busy for hours! My girls both love stickers so I knew I had to get them the Sticker Design Studio to try out. I can not even express how much fun they had with it! It comes with a transfer mat, 3 bottles of paint, a pattern design tool, a roller, three nozzles, two stencil sheets, four blank sticker sheets, six pre-cut sticker sheets, three foam sticker sheets, a plastic sheet and a design guide. This set seriously has everything you need to design over 50 stickers! It is a ton of stuff. It is best suited for ages 8 and up but even my 5 year old had a blast making her own stickers with my supervision. The design guide has a ton of fun and creative sticker designs or your kids can completely make their own. The transfer mat is super easy to use. You just drip a few drops of paint on it then use the roller to blend it together. After the paint is blended you can use the pattern design tool and such to make your patterns. After you are done designing your sticker you can transfer it onto pretty much anything. You can make them for your notebooks, lockers, phone cases, computers, book covers and more! These are so fun and really keep your kids entertained. Both of these would make great gifts this holiday season! You can see all the great Holiday Gifts by Crayola here!
