Great product! . My three-year old son really loves using these - he consistently chooses them over markers or crayons for his drawing lately. The size and shape make them easy for him to hold, and have the benefit of developing a "correct" hold for penmanship later on. There is a nice range of colors, some quite bold (he is particularly fond of the yellow for this reason) and others more pastel (like the lavendar) that don't show well on white paper, but are nice on dark construction paper. The crayons mark easily - he does not need to apply excessive pressure to get coverage that he is satisfied with. He also really likes opening and closing the drawstring bag they are stored in.

Great for little hands and creative minds! . My 2.5 year old son got these in his stocking this year along with a curious george coloring book. He really loves them. The little "sack" to carry them in is genius! He loves dumping them out, counting them and replacing them in their "hidey bag". They are easy enough to color with though the lines aren't very precise he doesn't mind though. They have quickly become a favorite and I'm planning to buy the stars next probably for easter.

Crayon Rocks Sixteen Colors (In a Cotton Muslin Bag) Opinions
Tiny little crayon stones are treasure for preschoolers! . As other reviewers have mentioned, these are small crayons. The sturdy little storage bag measures about 5 inches long, and the crayons are each about an inch long.
They are not toddler crayons, nor are they cutesy novelty crayons.
Any preschooler will know exactly what to do with these - the smooth, appealing little "rocks" are a perfect fit for a small hand, and make bold, beautiful strokes on paper. From my experience, traditional crayons will sit untouched as the crayon rocks are selected over and over again.
The crayon rocks are durable and don't break or crumble under normal conditions, There are no wrappers or flimsy boxes to mess with, and they last a surprisingly long time. Neat product, and I imagine many children will grow up with fond memories of crayon rocks!

Purchased for 4 yr. old grandaughter . My grandaughter loved the crayons. Easy to hold and did not break like regular crayons.
Gets any kid excited to draw! . I have purchased these for many a relative's kids from 3-7 years of age. When they opened them they seem to gravitate to them and know exactly what to do with them. Very few products are so instinctual. The colors are attractive and they are very hard to break compared to stick crayons. They also don't have paper that gets in the way as with regular crayons. They are long lasting (I gave these to some kids almost 3 years ago and they're still using them!) and don't pick up colors from other pieces even though they share a bag. They have multiple surfaces for drawing lines and shading and they are much easier to draw with, they have a buttery consistent texture- petroleum crayons tend to skip. They are made in the US. They are made with soy as opposed to petroleum. I recently read that products- like petroleum crayons- are labeled non-toxic because chemicals, such as petroleum products, have never been tested and therefore there is no data to prove otherwise! (see "The Artist's Complete Health and Safety Guide", Monona Rossol. Allworth Press, NY, co-published with the American Council for the Arts) As mentioned by others, the bag is genius! For some reason it seems easier for kids of that age to throw them in a bag than a box- and they love the bag. They have been a hit for every kid I've ever bought these for. Others have thanked me when I recommended them for the same reason.
Bought for 7 y/o with non-functioning pencil grip . What you gain in tripod grip function, you lose due to waxy feel. It is very hard to maintain a grip on these because your fingers slide around. My son lost interest quickly because his already weak hand muscles couldn't keep hold of the crayons. Will continue to try, but not sure I like these overall.
Love them . These are a great shape from younger children. My two year old colors much better with crayons with this shape. Some of the colors don't work as well, they come out really light.
Great colors! . I love these for my kids little hands (18 months and 3YO). They are very bright and easy to hold... just keep them away from the family dog... :( I love the pouch, it is great for my kids to put in their backpacks before a trip and much easier than a box that gets bent and beat up. Great buy even if they are a little more expensive then other crayons.
Teaches great fine motor skills to my toddler son . My son is a little behind in fine motor skills so we have been trying things to encourage him to advance while he's still a toddler. These crayon rocks were used by his therapist so I got some. They work really well because they force the child to use their fingertips to color rather than holding a giant crayon in their fist. The rocks are small so he has to grip them using fine motor skills but it's fun at the same time. And, he can't break these things like he has all other crayons. I liked them so much I bought a set for my 3-year-old nephew for his birthday along with a coloring pad.
easy to carry and fun to use . I can carry it in my bag and my girl can play it at restaurant or airport. It's easy and no massy.
Only thing is easy to break.
