 Why I like Crayola pencils Oct 22, 2009
By Noname
I bought Crayola pencils for my 5 and 8 year old children because I needed something for them to color with in the car that does not melt on the seats. Crayons just weren't cutting it. The pencils have been very nice to have around. The 12 count boxes have just the number of colors to satisfy their creative urge.
The tips are finer than a crayon, of course, so they must spend much more time coloring a picture. However, they also have more control, so the pictures come out looking lots neater.
My kids press hard on the tip to make their colors more bold, but the lead does not break. It's a pretty hard pencil.
Given the choice, my kids still prefer crayons, but they will use the pencils on occasion, or when we are out and the only thing available are the colored pencils. In time, I'm sure they will begin to favor the pencils. They are definitely my choice for car trips.

Great item for school! Sep 27, 2009
By c2
We've tried these and the rose-art brand and hands down, Crayola is the best. They last longer, don't crumble in the sharpener, and the colors are more vibrant. Plus, the kids don't have to press so hard to get a nice color from them. My husband even uses them to grade papers! Great product for every day household use as well. Only ones we buy now. Highly, highly recommend!

 constantly breaking Nov 06, 2010
By J. Weed
Did I get a bad batch? These pencils break constantly! Sometimes the tip breaks off after coloring for 30 seconds, and other times it breaks off right in the sharpener. I tried leaving just a teeny amount above the wood but anymore than that it just breaks off over and over. My kids 8 and 10 try to be careful, and I just can't understand why these pencils won't last longer. I bought Crayola for the name but we've sharpened away about half of them after just a few pictures. Very disappointing.

Cheap Price, Cheap Performance - You get what you pay for Feb 14, 2010
By Daniel
I purchased the Crayolas (along with the 24-color pack of Crayolas) over the Berol Prismacolor (to save some money) to color an Anatomy coloring book for school. Big mistake. The Crayolas are made of a harder substance and thus the colors do not easily glide onto the paper as is the case with Berols. This is important when you need to be precise in coloring small detail. Thus it took a lot longer to color a page, not mention the higher difficulty level and frustrations that accompany the coloring experience.
Now if the coloring objective is for small children's coloring books, then these Crayolas are fine for these needs. But if you're an adult or need to color something more sophisticated, go with the Berols!
