Crayola Jumbo Crayons, 8 Toddler Crayons, Assorted Colors

I bought these crayons a while back to practice scribbling skills with our son, who has a long list of diagnoses at this point that come with global developmental delays and some serious fine motor problems. For him, this particular area is one of his more difficult ones, and something I think he consequently particularly dislikes. So when we were finally able to get him imitating scribbling with some of his sister's old jumbo crayons, we wanted to get him some new ones of his own. The bigger size was important for him because it was easier for him to hold starting out. This box of crayons actually managed to make it a couple of years in our house before he managed to break all of them through a combination of chewing and dropping. He hates scribbling enough that we can't ever get him to do it outside of ABA reinforced therapy exercises, which probably contributed to their durability, however he was pretty hard on them because of his dislike of crayons (lots of chewing and throwing at the tile) and they stood up really pretty well to the abuse. Because of the thicker size, I was usually able to get them out of his mouth before he could bite all of the way through them. I actually really liked that about these, although when he did manage to bite a piece off of one once that terrified me because these are a great size for airway obstruction. They don't hold up as well to being dropped or thrown, they do shatter easier then smaller crayons, but to be honest, I totally taped them back together as long as I could, so it didn't impact us much. We've now moved on to the large crayons because his fine motor has improved enough that he can grip a smaller crayon, but for us I think these held up pretty well to the abuse he likes to subject crayons to (the regular size ones are a nightmare right now when it comes to his ability to bite through one, so that's something to keep in mind if you have a kiddo who likes to chew on these types of things), and I think these are a great place to start when it comes to working on scribbling with a kiddo who has fine motor challenges.

It’s good for toddlers. It helps practicing to color. It helps improving motor skills. It’s hard to break the crayons. Good sizes for toddlers.

We tried to teach my daughter to color when she was around a year old. We couldn't find the Jumbo crayons anywhere in stores so we settled on the triangular crayons they have for toddlers. They were ok..but hard to hold and a few of them broke after the first use. I ordered something else off Amazon recently so I added these to my order. What a difference! My 22 month old LOVES them. Puts one in each hand and off she goes. We did quite a bit of coloring because grandma was here and not one broken crayon either. And since they're Crayola, the actual color of the crayons can't be beat either. I have no idea why Crayola doesn't sell these in stores anymore, but I'm glad I was finally able to order them here.

Perfect for littles who arent quite sure how to hold crayons/markers the right way. Our daughter kept breaking all crayons given to her until these. They are sturdy and perfect!

My kiddo loves these. They fit great in her 2-year old hands. The colors are vibrant and smooth upon application. …I just wish they weren’t so darn expensive! The price is high for being that they’re only a few crayons. Great crayons, but phewy they could lower the price.

After reading many reviews of various Crayola incarnations, I settled on these for my 16-month old daughter. She is, perhaps, a bit young for them - she seems much more interested in dumping them out of the box and then putting them back in than she is in actually doodling with them. Still, they've survived several impacts with our tile floor without breaking, they're a good size for her small hands to hold, and she has had fun with them thus far even if she isn't using them in the way they were designed to be used. For that, five stars. This comes with the classic color set - black, brown, blue, green, orange, yellow, red, and violet.

Perfect starting point for baby's artistic endeavors. We got this for baby when she was 14 months, plus some giant drawing pad, and she loves it. "Wow!" she screams as she moves the crayon on the paper and a line appears. I guess it is pretty amazing the first time you see it! Make sure to get a couple pads --- you don't want crayons on the walls until you're replaced the matte finish with some scrubbable Sherwin Williams. :) One note: the box falls apart quickly, so consider getting a box to store them in, otherwise you'll step on one in the middle of the night and break it. Baby enjoyed just taking them in and out of the box, so it wore out in a week. No recommendations yet, but I'm sure there's a plastic pencil box or something out there that will work.

I bought these for my 1yro since they'd be harder to break than the thinner, regular crayons. I was shocked when he put the tip of one in his mouth and started dribbling color everywhere! You can guess how thrilled he was when I quickly removed every single one of his new gifts from his presence! I'm sure I was nearly as quick to get him something else appealing, once he was cleaned up anyway, but, oh, wow!!! I guess I should have expected that, as they're labeled "ultra washable", but, seriously! 😅 They're like the old description of M&Ms: "Melt in your mouth, not in your hand!" 🤣
