I didn't think there was anything I could contribute about crayons, but these are incredible. Here's what happened~ my 20 month old grandson was coloring with them, and one fell on the floor. The dog promptly started eating it, creating an instant mess. I went to the kitchen to throw out the remains, and I noticed my grandson went into the back room, but I was distracted, wiping the remains of the crayon off the rug (came up like magic). When I looked up, I saw my angel coloring the white bedroom door with the black crayon. Oh, he was so proud! After counting to 10, I returned to the kitchen and got a paper towel and put a drop of dishsoap on it. I wiped the door, and believe it or not, the crayon came right off, and left not a trace. There was no scrubbing involved at all. What else can I say? Oh they color as nice as the originals too, and are large for little hands. Try them, the price is also great!

These crayons are washable and rich in color but they break easily. My 2 year old daughter has broken each one with just regular use...not pressing too hard or throwing, etc...just with simple scribbling. Plus these flake, leaving small particles everywhere. Would not purchase again.

Colors are bold, colors are bright. They go on windows, doors and walls but you know what? They come off easily with a damp cloth. I never had this much luck with washable crayons. Don't notice any flaking issues, I guess it depends on the paper surface.

My 2-year old loves these but I love them even more since they're easy to clean off the tables and walls. I just use a wet towel to get it off. Now I don't have to worry too much about where he's scribbling.

THese crayons are fine. My 15mo actually bit a piece off and chewed it. Ended up wih a blue mouth but nothing else, thankfully. They come off the floor (tile) and clothes easily (i used a baby wipe)but they do rub on easily as well since one pass over her face and mine ends up with crayon marks all over his face! They do tend to melt easily since I left box next to my warm laptop fan and they were melting the other day. They are thick but not as thicker as I remember when I was a kid, so I'd say like a medium thick (not skinny stick thin like crayons for older kids). They are fine for entertaining my kid without having to worry about how to clean since it comes off easy!

So this is my second package of these specific crayons.
They are wonderful, they wash off so much more easily than the regular crayons. Except the red one. That's still a little tough to get off the walls. Other than that though, I recommend these to everyone who has a little graffiti artist at home.

I searched high and low through the retail stores in August since my son's preschool supply list included Crayola preschool size crayons. I finally went to Amazon and found them quickly. Maybe I could buy them for a dollar or two cheaper at a regular store, but I'd have to find them in stock first. Amazon makes it easy to get what you need fast.

I guess there are always trade-offs in life, because although these crayons are extremely easy to wash off of almost any surface, they also break apart after only one or two uses. I now have washable PIECES of crayon, rather than washable crayons. They still do the job, and I still steer my 2 year old to use these pieces instead of her other coloring devices, but she has clued into the fact that broken crayons are less fun (and much harder) to draw with. Unfortunately, the pieces mostly sit unused in her drawer.

A pack of 8 large Crayolas doesn't leave a lot to screw up. It's just what you'd think: a basic 8-pack of crayons. Just what I wanted. I was thinking they might be a little thicker than they turned out to be. My niece is a toddler, and I didn't want her to snap them, but I'm sure these crayons are strong enough to stand up to her.

These fat crayons are great for little hands. They do require for the child to press a little harder than regular crayons probably b/c they are washable. I have not had to wash them off of anything as of yet but I hear from other mom's that they do wash off items.
