Crayola Bathtub Crayons, Assorted Colors 10 ea

My daughter has always been hesitant about getting in the bath and I bought her the Color My Bath! 300 Color Changing Bath Tablets which she loves. Then I saw these and I had to try them. They are a little bit difficult to clean up from our tiled walls but if she draws on the ceramic bathtub, it wipes right off. I gave her washcloths to clean up and she calls them "erasers" and she loves to draw and erase and then draw more! Yesterday I noticed her soaking a washcloth and sticking it to the wall and drawing on it! Then when she was done, she took the washcloth off, washed the colors, and put the washcloth back on the wall. I thought, what a genius idea!! No need to scrub the walls when she finishes each bath and she feels like a professional artist drawing on her little "canvas." The fact that my four year old came up with that idea on her own makes me proud of her. And I have to recommend this idea to other parents who have complained about having to clean up after every bath with these crayons. Give your children washcloths and try my daughters idea! At the end of the bath, we just rinsed the washcloths and that was the end of cleanup! Simple, mess-free, and so much fun! My daughter did not want to come out of the bath even though she has her own large easel with paints and crayons she can color on outside of the bath. She just got so excited by the idea of drawing inside the bath. I think this product is brilliant and when mixed with the tablets to color the water, you have a super colorful fun bath that children love!! I will be buying these again! :)

The colors and vibrancy are nice. That’s about it. Do NOT buy these. I don’t know how a company as big as Crayola messed this up but they did. A couple crayons came looking like they had melted before I even opened the package so that was a bit of a concern. We opened them anyways and it was like coloring with paint. The color was so thick and the crayons broke easily. I was able to clean it off the tub easily at first but after they played with them for a while, it got harder to clean. We ended up with a ring around the entire tub and as others mentioned, it got on the kids’ skin and I had to scrub it off of them. Also expect your bath mat you most likely have in the tub to get stained as well. I had to scrub the entire tub with bleach as soon as the kids got out. Extremely disappointing. The $1 at Target worked better

bought the bath tub crayons by recommendation for a good motor skill exercise for my son by his teacher. I could have made them myself, but the work is not worth the price on this. I will buy more when we run out. Using it to get my 5 year old son to do some writing exercises in turns with shaving cream exercises. He loves it, he tells me what he wants to write, I write it on the wall and he copies it. and as a reward for practising writing we play a couple of rounds X's and O's. Writing on tiles works great and is easy to wash off, even after a couple of days. He started full time school, and barely ever gets to see his Dad during the week, as he works second shift. So We started to leave Daddy messages on the wall during bath time and leave them up to the next day, so Daddy gets to read them! Very educational, fun and the kids think they are doing something "bad" by writing on the wall, so this makes it even more fun.Attention with younger kids, this may cause them to think it's okay to write in the wall and next thing you know there may be sharping drawings on your walls ... ;)

I thought I'd give it a try. Unfortunately I don't like the results.The design of these is a crayon inside a plastic outer shell. The crayon is extendable and retractable with a little clicking slider on the side. Unfortunately, one of my kids views this as an excuse to extend them fully and then accidentally break them off, rendering them useless. The other of my kids is too little to work the slider, which frustrates her.They don't stain my fiberglass tub enclosure. In fact, they wash off the fiberglass easily with a wet washcloth, and my kids enjoy doing that for me (thank goodness!). But I've discovered that they DO stain any soap scum that happens to be hanging around the tub. Since the adults use a lot of soap and our water has a lot of minerals, the combination is that we are always battling soap scum in the tub. Now we are battling orange and blue soap scum. Ew.As they are being washed off the walls, they tend to accumulate little flakes of non-dissolved crayon in the bottom of the tub. It just doesn't feel like a clean bath once the kids start using them.I think Crayola did their best to make a good product, but it just doesn't work for my household.
