Sprite Scribblers- Blues and Greens Set

Wed, 07 Oct 2009 15:15:02 -0400

$3.50
Instead of those little Sprites scribbling on my walls..I kindly asked them if they would like to make some for The Polka Dot Dragon!

To my delighted surprise they said yes! They loved the idea that I wanted to recycle some much loved crayons. Now they make the scribblers and color on paper with them. Once I showed them all the wonderful things they could do with them;) Such as.....

~ Leaf Rubbings:
Place a piece of paper over leaves you have collected from a Nature Walk.*Please remember to be kind while collecting though:)* Then rub your scribbler over the paper using the flat side. Try using other objects under the paper as well. Glitter,cloth,rice and foamies are fun to use.

~Make tye dye clothes for your paper dolls! Just cut a pattern for a shirt,dress etc... then rub away! Younger Sprites may need to color first then cut.

This set includes 3 recycled/upcycled crayons that are 2 inches in diameter.
Colors are:
A myriad of blue and green hues!
This set also has non-toxic glitter added to give your wee ones creations a little extra spark!

Crayons are NON-TOXIC. Children of all ages love these. The wee ones can grasp these so much better and the older ones love the swirly colors and effects.

Please use adult supervision if letting babies use our scribblers. Scribblers are much like a cookie and smaller pieces could break off if munched on which could pose a choking hazard.
