A new addition this year is five crayons from the brand’s Colors of Kindness collection for kids to make their personalized crayon box even more unique: Be Sweet to Each Other, You’re So A-Peeling, Kind to the Core, Rise Above, and Spread Your Wings.
“The first Crayola box of crayons sold in 1903 and 120 years later opening a box of Crayola crayons continues to unleash the imagination and provide unlimited possibilities for creative expression, just like visiting Crayola Experience,” said Warren Schorr, Crayola senior vice president. “Celebrating National Crayon Day and the Crayola crayon’s 120th birthday is the perfect time to colorfully inspire happy thoughts, encourage positive interactions, and motivate acts of kindness and compassion.”
