Crayola Experience Launches Million Crayon Giveaway

EASTON, Pa., March 31, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Thousands of kids and kids at heart are celebrating National Crayon Day today by helping Crayola Experience launch its Million Crayon Giveaway, which runs through May.

The family destination where Crayola color and creativity come to life hopes to inspire kids to color the world with kindness with this year's giveaway held at its five locations across the country in Easton, Pa.; Orlando, Fla.; Bloomington, Minn. (Mall of America); Plano, Texas; and Chandler, Ariz.

Crayon lovers create personal, one-of-a-kind, 32-count crayon boxes in honor of the colorful holiday by filling them with their favorite crayon colors from a 40-foot-long Pick Your Pack wall at the Crayola Experience retail stores.

To help spread messages of kindness and positivity, Crayola Experience has added five crayons from the brand's Color of Kindness collection to the more than 70 different crayon colors that kids can choose from, making their custom box even more unique. The specialty crayons are: Be Sweet to Each Other, You're So A-Peeling, Kind to the Core, Rise Above, and Spread Your Wings.

"The first Crayola box of crayons sold in 1903 and 120 years later opening a box of Crayola crayons continues to unleash the imagination and provide unlimited possibilities for creative expression, just like visiting Crayola Experience," said Warren Schorr, Crayola Senior Vice President, Business Development, Global Licensing and Experiences.

"Celebrating National Crayon Day and the Crayola crayon's 120^th birthday is the perfect time to colorfully inspire happy thoughts, encourage positive interactions, and motivate acts of kindness and compassion," Schorr said.
