Artistic Inspiration Giveaway: Crayola Creativity Packs

by

CrayolaCreativitycast_LOGO

New Crayola Crayons were one of my favorite back-to-school supplies as a kid. There was just something about a brand new pack of shiny, multi-colored crayons that inspired me to want to create colorful images of hearts and rainbows and all things sparkly and pretty that the imaginations of young girls conjure up. That waxy scent still takes me right back to the first day of 2nd grade, kind of like the smell of Playdoh reminds me of rainy day fun. . .

I’m so glad that Crayola products have stood the test of time and are now inspiring a new generation of imaginations. And I’m happy to share with you about how you can join in the fun!

Every Tuesday night through the month of August, Crayola is sponsoring “Girls Night Out” on Twitter – the mommy social gathering featuring colorful and engaging discussions on all things back-to-school. Crayola has teamed up with MomItForward.com, the creator of “Girls Night Out” (GNO), to bring you the “Crayola Creativitycast.” The weekly series of GNO discussions will feature a new topic each week like “Affordable Fun 101” and “Back to School Survival Guide,” and all GNO participants will have the chance to win great prizes!

For more details about tonight’s #GNO chat and how to participate, go here.

Don’t worry if you’ve already got plans during these events – you also have the opportunity to win one of four Crayola Creativity Packs right here on Deal Seeking Mom!

    We didn’t have crayola in my country when I was growing up but I used it here with kids, along with other brands and nothing colors like crayola:)

    My favorite memory of Crayola when I was a kid was getting the VERY special big box with the sharpener in the back. I thought I was the coolest kid on the block when I got that! Back to school shopping was always my favorite time of year- getting all those shiny new supplies was so fun!

  8. Denisse

    I remember the smell of new crayons on the beginning of the school year! it makes want to go back!

    Hope we win!

    Everytime I got a new box of crayons, I would make a color guide on a sheet of paper. I would write the name of the crayon in the color. Soon I had a list of all the colors to go off of.

  12. Danetta

    I have always loved Crayola crayons and can remember many days as a child when I would lay on the floor in the living room and color in my coloring books while watching cartoons.

  13. Alli

    Growing up, my best friend and I would spend hours drawing and coloring together. It was the best because she always got the 98 count crayons!!

  17. Laurie

    I loved coloring, painting, and anything creative with Crayola as a child, but not as much as my 3-year-old daughter. She is a crafty kid and can occupy herself for hours. It’s a joy to watch her being so creative already. What a great gift this Crayola pack would be for her!

    I loved opening up a brand new box of crayons as a kid, especially the large boxes with the really rare colors like silver!

    My favorite childhood memory using crayola was when i was in third grade doing a project on Florida. I remember laying out all of my crayons, markers and colored pencils and drawing what i thought was the best picture ever of that state. LOL!!

    When I was young my mom would gather up all of the broken crayons and melt them together making one large rainbow colored crayon.
