These crayons offer nostalgic appeal to adults while preserving the fun of coloring for children. Kids and "kidults" alike will surely want to keep a set in their memory box. Each set includes eight figures and specific colors can be requested. A perfect combination of play and art, these are sure to be admired by children with a creative imagination.
