December 22nd, 2011 on 10:04 pm
My daughter would love to win the Princess kit.
December 22nd, 2011 on 10:04 pm
I always loved coloring as a child, my mom never bought anything but crayola….I would sit and color for hours!
December 22nd, 2011 on 10:06 pm
I almost bought one of these for my niece for Christmas! She’s a girly girl, so Disney Princesses are a must.
December 22nd, 2011 on 10:07 pm
Also, my favorite Crayola memory is my daughter’s first attempt at drawing. Yay for washable Crayola crayons!
December 22nd, 2011 on 10:07 pm
I’m in Canada so I don’t qualify to win… but my favourite Crayola memory is the art carousel. I loved that spinning holder of all things artsy (well, in my 6-yr old world anyway). I can still smell the paints that were part of it…
December 22nd, 2011 on 10:10 pm
My daughter would love the princess one!!
December 22nd, 2011 on 10:11 pm
My daughter would love the princess one!
December 22nd, 2011 on 10:12 pm
My memory is opening a box of new crayons…the best!
December 22nd, 2011 on 10:12 pm
Tough choice! I know several fans of both, but since my grandaughter’s are living with me right now, I’ll go with Princess. They love everything Princess at the moment.
December 22nd, 2011 on 10:12 pm
My daughter is a Princess fanatic and would love the princess story kit, though she does love to play Spiderman with her cousins!
December 22nd, 2011 on 10:12 pm
We’re all about princesses here!
December 22nd, 2011 on 10:12 pm
I would love the spiderman story for my boys!
December 22nd, 2011 on 10:13 pm
Favorite crayola memories are sitting in the back seat with my sister on road trips with a brand new box and a fresh crisp notebook. Games, coloring contests, scribble picture games…great times.
December 22nd, 2011 on 10:13 pm
My favorite Crayola memory was when they released their box of 108(?) or so crayons and several of them were unnamed. There was a contest to name them, so I tried to come up with names for all the crayons. I didn’t win, but it was fun to think up names!
December 22nd, 2011 on 10:14 pm
I’d want Spiderman… I’ve got two nephews!
December 22nd, 2011 on 10:14 pm
My favorite memory was to take all the broken crayons (we only always had Crayola) and melt them down into big mixed-color crayons.
December 22nd, 2011 on 10:17 pm
We have 2 girls that have a lot of friends and you can NEVER go wrong with the Princesses!!!
December 22nd, 2011 on 10:18 pm
My son has just started writing as in kindergarten they are working on The sight words..his story the other day was ” once upon a time DUR was a bear…” He would love the spiderman book and these are great to put away in memory boxes for him to reflect on when older
December 22nd, 2011 on 10:25 pm
I would take either Spiderman for my boy or Princess for my daughter.
December 22nd, 2011 on 10:25 pm
Smelling the smell of crayola crayons brings me instantly back to childhood.
December 22nd, 2011 on 10:32 pm
Disney
December 22nd, 2011 on 10:33 pm
Princesses! (sorry kids and phones don’t mix!)
December 22nd, 2011 on 10:32 pm
I would like the Spiderman set.
December 22nd, 2011 on 10:33 pm
I remember shaving the crayons (or sharpening them and collecting the shavings) and putting them between wax paper and ironing over it. It made beautiful art that my mom would hang all over the house!
December 22nd, 2011 on 10:34 pm
I still love the smell, but as a kid our dad would draw random little sketches for us to find in the mornings…and I loved that!
December 22nd, 2011 on 10:40 pm
My girls would love a Princess book!
December 22nd, 2011 on 10:46 pm
Since I have boys and a girl, either kit would be wonderful, but my little girl is my artist so if I had to pick, it would be the princess one!
December 22nd, 2011 on 10:54 pm
It would be wonderful to win the Crayola Disney Princesses story studio kit.
December 22nd, 2011 on 10:55 pm
Greatest Crayola memory from childhood is just that PERFECT box of brand new crayons. Still love them.
December 22nd, 2011 on 10:56 pm
My daughter would love the princesses, but my nephew would like the super heroes!
December 22nd, 2011 on 10:57 pm

December 22nd, 2011 on 11:21 pm
my favorite memory about crayola as a kid was opening a brand new box of crayons [the 64 count was the best!] along with a brand new coloring book….i was happy for hours!
December 23rd, 2011 on 12:00 am
My daughter would really enjoy the Disney princesses kit!
December 23rd, 2011 on 12:01 am
My favorite Crayola memory is of my mom helping us craft with the leftover bits of crayons that had been used well and loved. One craft involved making “stained glass” by melting shredded crayons with the iron. So cool!
December 23rd, 2011 on 12:03 am
My daughter would love to get the princess book.
December 23rd, 2011 on 12:12 am
Princesses are all the rage ’round these parts!
December 23rd, 2011 on 4:11 am
Either one! I have a 3 year old daughter and 5 year old son so they would both love these.
December 23rd, 2011 on 6:11 am
Princess. Always loved crayola best, remember when i got my first box with 16. I was so excited! Later got a 48 and loved cerulean blue i think it was!
December 23rd, 2011 on 6:26 am
either one of these kits would work for our family since i have both a son and daughter!
December 23rd, 2011 on 6:26 am
my favorite crayola memory was when they introduced colors other than the traditional 8 pack of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, brown, and black. i was over the moon excited!
December 23rd, 2011 on 7:20 am
My son would love the Spiderman kit
December 23rd, 2011 on 7:24 am
It’s hard to think of a favorite memory involving crayola in my youth since my life revolved around crayola. I had the crayon carousel and I would draw and color for hours, but I lived it when my big brother would lay in the floor with me and join in. He was usually “too cool” for coloring with his sister.
December 23rd, 2011 on 7:55 am
I’d love to win the Disney Princess Story Studio for my daughter! Thank you for the chance!
December 23rd, 2011 on 8:15 am
Luckily for my daughter, my son is too young so if we won she would get the princess one.
December 23rd, 2011 on 8:18 am
One of my favorite Crayola memories is my cousin Alicia and I always got a new pack of crayons (always Crayola!) and a coloring book before going on vacation. We would each pick 2 or 3 colors and color our whole picture with only those. When we were done we would argue about whose was better….but not claiming our own as the best. I would argue that hers was better and she would argue that mine was better. Great memory!!
December 23rd, 2011 on 8:19 am
Mia will love princesses stoty book
December 23rd, 2011 on 8:52 am
We don’t cater to gender stereotypes, so we would be happy with either! My girls love princesses as well as Spider Man.
December 23rd, 2011 on 9:20 am
My son would love the Spiderman kit–he’s a big spiderman nut.
December 23rd, 2011 on 9:21 am
My two daughters, Hazel and Elsie would love the princess kit!
December 23rd, 2011 on 9:22 am
My favorite crayola memory is when Mr. Rogers visited the crayola factory! It was amazing to see how they made crayons when I was a little girl. I will always remember that episode!
December 23rd, 2011 on 9:23 am
The Disney Princess kit:-)
December 23rd, 2011 on 9:25 am
My favorite Crayola memory happened on Christmas morning. I opened up my gift and it was a glass holder full of Crayola Crayons. I think it had every color they made in it. I had to get coloring right away. I still get excited every time I see something new or a new product.
December 23rd, 2011 on 9:57 am
I would love to win the Spiderman
December 23rd, 2011 on 10:11 am
I would just love the Spiderman one for my son…. His birth father (he is adopted) gives him spiderman stuff so I love to get him something special every year that is Spiderman
December 23rd, 2011 on 10:13 am
Oh man, I have both a girl and 2 boys. I guess I would choose the Disney Princesses though.
December 23rd, 2011 on 10:17 am
Well you will see a trend — my first Crayola moment
I lived in a foster home (my birth mom was 15) And my foster mom was friends with a beautiful couple across the street from them. The couple across the street was looking for a toddler girl to adopt (I was almost 3) So when I moved in they called and said Please come se her we have found our granddaughter.. Well they came and they brought with them some Crayola crayons and some colouring books 
I am very blessed to say they fell in love and I was adopted withing 3 months (paperwork took awhile since i was in differnt part of state) So that is my first Crayola expierence 
December 23rd, 2011 on 10:29 am
Although my daughter would flip for the Disney Princess one, my son would love having the Spiderman one to work on while the other kids do their school work. So, Spiderman it is. Yea Crayola. My Mother-In-Law still has an old Crayola tin she keeps her crayons in. The kids think it is awesome.
December 23rd, 2011 on 10:30 am
Disney princess for my daughter. She would love it! Thanks for the chance
December 23rd, 2011 on 11:55 am
would love to have the pricess kit for my daughter!
December 23rd, 2011 on 12:01 pm
i had this raggedy old plastic chair when i was a little girl. you would expect it to be in the trash, but i loved it SO much. when you lifted the seat, there were crayons. every color you could possibly imagine. i felt that was just like a secret treasure. i would put a piece of paper on the seat, sit on the ground in front of it and draw and color for hours.
December 23rd, 2011 on 12:57 pm
My son would love the Spiderman story kit.
December 23rd, 2011 on 1:27 pm
I would love either one since I have a boy and girl!
December 23rd, 2011 on 1:29 pm
My favorite crayola thing growing up was a storage case for my colors. It folded back like a table top tray do display them all while I was coloring. I wish they still had these so my kids could use them.
December 23rd, 2011 on 1:57 pm

December 23rd, 2011 on 2:31 pm
When I was little my grandparents had a “big” 120 case of Crayola Crayons (which is no biggie now but 20+ yrs ago was awesome!). I remember taking these every where and sitting in the back of their pickup while we went on vacation just coloring away!
December 23rd, 2011 on 3:04 pm
my girly girl would love the princess kit!
December 23rd, 2011 on 3:04 pm
as a kid I was so proud to be able to carefully color in the lines with my crayolas and when they were nubs melt them down into wax paper “stained glass” creations!
December 23rd, 2011 on 4:46 pm
i have a little boy who is knee deep in super hero mania! he’d LOVE the spidey kit!!

My favorite Crayola memory is a new box of crayons and a christmas coloring book from my grandpa – every year when I was little he’d give us kids one a few weeks before Christmas.
December 23rd, 2011 on 11:57 pm
I love anything that inspires kids to write and think of stories – would love Spidey.
December 23rd, 2011 on 11:59 pm
My best crayon memory – though certainly not my parents’ – is of placing paper on the heater in the garage (our play area) and then drawing with crayons on the hot paper. I even grated a bit of crayon and melted the bits on the paper. I loved the smell – of course that’s what gave me away to parents, who weren’t too keen on crayon bits melting into the stove. Amazingly I never caught anything on fire!! Guess that was early encaustics.
December 24th, 2011 on 11:29 am
I know a little boy who would love the Spidey one!
December 24th, 2011 on 12:08 pm
With three boys – Spiderman is the one. Love Crayola!
December 24th, 2011 on 12:11 pm
My favorite Crayola memory is simple. I LOVED opening the 64 crayola box and seeing all those beautiful colors. So many to choose from, so many options! I also loved how the box came with a sharpener and I was obsessively sharpening them. thanks for taking me back. I need to get my boys a box.
December 24th, 2011 on 12:29 pm
