Stockmar Beeswax Block Crayons, Set of 8 - Non Toxic, Safe, Natural Jumbo Crayons For Kids & Adults - Waldorf Homeschool -Waldorf Art Supplies - I...

My son used these from an early age at his Waldorf school, so I bought these as a 1st Birthday present for my niece. She's 15mos old now and just starting to use them. Perfect for little hands as they're easy to hold.

These crayons are the same ones my now grown daughter used in Waldorf school some years ago. Now my little grandson is using them. They are the best

As a mom and grandmother to many who is concerned about our family's health and well being (and also an artist!), the quality and toxicity of products we use is very important to me. For many years I have purchased these very crayons, in various forms, for my children and grandchildren. We simply love to make art, and use quality tools to do so. The quality of these crayons are second to none! The depth of color, the pigmentation, of these crayons is simply beautiful! Pictures drawn with these are vibrant, beautiful, and do not ever fade. Also, the availability of both stick and block forms make it easy for hands of every size and ability to enjoy creating beautiful art, right out of the convenient tin! And should a toddler or baby decide they wanted a taste of these lovely sticks, there is no need to worry about upset tummies or discolored lips. With a beeswax base and naturally-derived pigments, there is never a concern for such. So if you're looking for crayons for your little ones that you can feel good about, these are definitely it! Not the cheap versions you pick up at Walmart, but certainly worth every penny!

Stockmar beeswax block crayons are WONDERFUL for toddlers, who are still learning fine motor skills. They are bright colors, easy to hold, and so fun to use. The tin in which they come is a wonderful way to store them (and makes them portable in a diaper bag, as well, for those interminable minutes of waiting for food to come at a restaurant... ). We love these, use them like crazy, and gift them to toddlers on holidays and birthdays all over the place. :) Highly recommended.
