What it does
The standard 24 count box of Crayola crayons, double wrapped in a reusable tuck box; reviewed here as the closest match for a 24 count crayon box whose brand could not be confirmed.
- Classic 24 color assortment in a flip-top tuck box
- Double paper wrap meant to add strength
- Crayola says US manufacturing runs on solar power
- Lays down even, well pigmented color in side by side tests
A dependable default for kids who color at home or school, with strong color and a very low price when back to school sales hit. The trade-off is that side by side tests found Crayola crayons break and flake more easily than some rivals, and cheaper boxes such as Cra-Z-Art come close on color.
