Beyond just being a practical pack of six colorful writing or drawing utensils for play, these shaped crayons take the form of lovable fantasy figurines like queens, kings, princesses, wizards and knights.
The shapely crayons feature molded character faces atop a long stem and a pointy writing or drawing tip. This form provides plenty of space for kids to grip, transforming the crayons into figurines for play. The cut-out castle packaging that the colorful crayon set comes in is just a starting point of inspiration for what other playsets could be created for this fun cast of characters.
Since it's possible to create crayons in a range of shapes like these ones, with the right molds, recreating characters like these could be a fun DIY craft.
