As I wandered through Staples the other day, a box of crayons caught my eye. It was a box of ninety-six Crayola crayons! Ninety-six? Are you kidding? I thought the ultimate was a box of 64. The small print reads, “96 Different Colors.” Nice.
But wait. There’s more. I turned the corner and saw another display with a box of one hundred and twenty crayons! “120 Different Colors”! Wow. That’s almost double what I thought was the ultimate box of crayons.
But wait. There’s more. I saw
- A box of 24 Metallic Crayons
- A box of 24 Pearl Crayons
- A box of 24 Glitter Crayons
- A box of 24 “Colors of Kindness”
- A box of 24 “Colors of the World”
- A box of 24 “Ultra-clean Washable Crayons”
- A box of 8 Neon Crayons
- A box of 24 Bold and Bright Construction Paper Crayons
I almost had to sit down. I don’t even know what some of these are. But I want to find out. I want to buy a box of each. I think I need about $50 for the whole set. I just want to see what all these different colors are called and what they look like on paper.
So I Googled “Crayola Crayons.” There are more!
- Confetti Crayons
- Pastel Crayons
- An Ultimate 152 Crayon Collection
- BJ’s Wholesale Club sells a bucket of 200 crayons!
- Cosmic Crayons
- Swirl Crayons
- Mythical Creatures Crayons
- Uni-Crayons
I may have a new hobby here: collecting Crayola crayons.
Waite for it...
