Crayola Factory Fun

Our family vacation this year took us to Pennsylvania. We knew we wanted to go to Sesame Place (pictures of that adventure to come!) We also decided it would be fun to go to the Crayola Factory. So here we are!

CHEESE!

Color wonders are very popular at our house. We usually like to reserve these wonderful inventions to a long car trip. They were so excited to sit and do some coloring at the Factory!

We thought this was a cute idea - however, then we realized we were dealing with H! They had a display up where you could write on the walls (which were clear) with special markers. What a great idea! Oh, wait, we had a detailed conversation with H about when and where we would be doing this! I now fear if he has a marker and folllow him around the house to make sure he isn't writing on the walls!


They had the mirrors that made you look silly and the kids really enjoyed this part too. They especially like it when Daddy went in and looked funny!



This was probably my favorite part of the whole factory. I was able to get G and E into an older section to use melted wax to do some drawings. They heated the wax up and then you would drip or splatter it onto a pre-designed paper art. It was fascinating! Many adults were in this part doing it as well as kiddos!




Of course, sidewalk chalk is VERY popular with R and E! These two would draw all day! E is very artsy, so she had a difficult time all day trying to get done with her projects at each station in the time alloted. Of course, all the boys were done quickly! Some of them E had to finish at home!


Yummy had a great time as well. He was able to snooze in the stroller for part of it, so he was pleasant! There were also parts where he could get out and crawl around.




The kids had a great time at the Crayola Factory! We were so glad we decided to go! Highly recommended!
The kids found it funny to pose in these characters!
