Crayola My First Palm Grip Crayons – 6 Washable Egg-Shaped Toddler Crayons
These Crayola My First Palm Grip Crayons give toddlers an easy way to start coloring. The set includes six egg-shaped crayons in red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple. Designed for children as young as 12 months, the ergonomic shape fits naturally in a small hand, helping little ones make their first marks without struggling. Each crayon lasts as long as 14 standard crayons, and the washable formula makes cleanup simple.
What colors are included in this set?
The six crayons come in bright, classic colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple. These are the same shades children encounter early in life, making them ideal for first color recognition and scribbling.
How do these crayons compare to regular crayons?
Each palm-grip crayon is equivalent to 14 regular crayons in terms of coloring volume. That means one egg-shaped crayon lasts much longer than a standard stick, so you won't need replacements as often. Despite their size, they're still portable and easy for toddlers to hold.
Why the egg shape works for toddlers
Typical thin crayons are tough for tiny fingers to grip. The egg shape of these Crayola My First crayons lets a toddler wrap their whole hand around the crayon, using the natural palm grasp that develops before the pincer grip. This design reduces frustration and lets children focus on creating.
Are these crayons washable?
Yes. The crayons are made with washable material, so marks on skin, clothing, or most washable surfaces come off with soap and water. Parents can let kids explore without worrying about permanent stains.

Frequently asked questions
What age group are these crayons for?
The manufacturer recommends them for children 12 months and up, up to 120 months (10 years). They're especially helpful for toddlers who are just starting to scribble.
Do the crayons break easily?
The egg shape is sturdy and less likely to snap than thin crayons. However, like all crayons, they can break if dropped repeatedly. The thick design helps them hold up to toddler handling.
Can these crayons be used on walls?
They can mark walls, but because they are washable, the marks can be cleaned from most painted surfaces with a damp cloth. Always test an inconspicuous area first.
Are these crayons non-toxic?
Crayola products are routinely tested for safety, but the product data does not explicitly state non-toxic certification. If you have concerns, check the packaging for safety labels.
