Crayola Color Wonder Review Summary

Crayola Color Wonders are markers, paints and paper specially designed to create together without the mess of regular markers and paints. Our reviewers rate this activity consistently with 5 stars with its easy, mess free fun for children from toddler to school age. One reviewer stated, “this is a great way to allow her (my toddler) to color and not have to worry about her coloring on surfaces that she is not supposed to” color on.

Imagine allowing your child to draw with markers right on your living room furniture.  No way would we let our children do this, would we?  Well, with Crayola Color Wonder, you can let them color ANYWHERE and not have to worry about ink leaking on your carpets or furniture.

I purchased the color wonder markers, and glitter paints, and finger paints for my 3 year old.  I love the idea, but the actual product isn't quite  all it's cracked up to be.  All three products have a delayed reaction.  From the time you paint on the paper to the time the color shows up completely...

I absolutely LOVE Crayola's Color Wonder products!  Living with light colored walls and new carpeting, I needed something that would allow my son to scribble and draw without having to worry about spending hours trying to remove stains later.  I had heard about the Color Wonder line and decided to give it a try. We liked them so much we got a set to keep at each grandparent's house as well.

The products are a bit on the expensive side.  I'd be happier if the paper was double-sided, as well.  But compared to the cost - not to mention time - of trying to get stains out of clothing and off of walls,...

I love the Crayola Color Wonder line. I first bought a set when my son was two years old. I was immediately hooked! He gets to have all the fun of coloring with markers without all of the mess and cleanup for me! I like that they carry the different cartoon characters and different sizes of coloring books. My son has the travel set and likes to color while riding in his carseat. when he gets done, he can just put everything back into the neat little pouch until next time, and I know his clothes and carseat are still clean. I have bought many of the color wonder sets for birthday and Christmas...

In this time of penny pinching and watching where my money is going, the Crayola Wonder Marker is a must have in our household!  I am a mother to a very busy, imaginative, artistic 23 month old little girl.  She firmly believes that the whole world is her drawing pad.  She loves to draw, color or just plain old write everywhere. I was always cleaning up walls, our sofa the coffee table even her pants were exempted from Bella's artistic mind. So the crayola wonder marker was a gift not only to my pocket but anyone else's when we visited our friends and family.  No matter where she trys to draw... review »

I love this product.  Before having my daughter, I thought the idea of special markers which only color on special paper was stupid.  There was no way I would ever purchase something like this.  My attitude quickly changed once my daughter became a toddler.  She loves to color, and this is a great way to allow her to color and not have to worry about her coloring on sufaces which she is not supposed to .  We can take these to restaurants and not worry about her making a mess.  They are also great because she can walk around the room with them open and I don't have to worry about her marking... review »

I tried a few of the Crayola Color Wonder products thinking "What a great idea! Creativity without the mess?!" I hate to say that it is a little good to be true. Yes, they do work. Your child can draw, paint etc without adding color to your whole house. On the down side they are drastically over priced, and it can take serveral seconds for the colors to appear, if you have younger children this can be just enough time for them to lose interest. The finger paints run out quite quickly and our markers dried out quickly. You have to have the special paper so once you run out, if the paint and markers...

The surprise in a child's eye when the color from either a pen or a bruash hits the special coloring paper is priceless.  And what a treat for parents,especially mom,to know that you can leave a child in wonderment and not have to worry about walking into a disaster on the walls, floors and on one another.  The creativity is effortlless and the memories are timeless and in true Crayola fashion there is a whole line of other Crayola Color Wonder products to coincide with these pens and brushes. 

You can either purchase the Color Wonder products seperately or as a collection, either way it...

I have 3 wonderful children, under the age of 5, yes im crazy. lol. They enjoy coloring very much, but i got little extras with that too, like nail polish paintings on the walls, crayon on the walls, and toys, and tables..they never seemed to be able to keep it on the paper! I was very frutrated, and at the end of my rope, i took the crayons and writing utensils away,but then, i felt guilty. I thought , ok ive seen the commercials a million times, i will go ahead and give crayola color wonder a try, i mean after all it couldnt get any worse than what they had already done right. When i went to...

I cannot say enough good things about Crayola Color Wonder.  I have 2 very imaginative and creative kids, but the youngest likes to get creative in places I'd rather she didn't.  Color Wonder saves my floors, walls, and furniture from her creativity!  I like the markers the best for the kids.  the paint tends to get glopped on pretty thick by my 4 year old and the crayon sticks are very hard to twist up.  My 4 year old loves to color with big sisters markers but again, it ends up on her hands, face and clothes.  These I can give her with the special paper and she is happy because she gets... review »

The color wonder markers are one of Crayola's greatest inventions.  The kids can be imaginative and color to their hearts content, all without messing up the floors, walls, tables, cabinets, doors, cat, and any of their siblings!  Yes, there have been a few times when I put my then infant - toddler boys down for naps only to find one of them later covered with black permanent marker and the other smiling oh so innocently!  With choices of coloring books or blank pages of the special Color Wonder paper, these markers can do everything traditional markers do, but without the mess!  The paper... review »

I think the Crayola Color Wonder products just aren't that good. They clame to have no mess but the paint that they have for the Color Wonder paints is actually pretty messy. You may not be able to see the mess but it leaves your childrens hands full of a greasy substance. My child actually cried because she didn't like the feel of it on her hands. I had to scrub it off her and it was slimy to wash off. We also tried the Color Wonder markers. I think they are way too expensive and the markers dry out and loose their ink way too fast. It's just not worth the money when they don't last that long....

My daughter, who recently turned 2, is really into arts and crafts. Sometimes, however, I can't dedicate as much time as I would like to sitting with her while she is doing them. That makes it very difficult for her to do crafty things whenever she would like.

For her 2nd birthday she received Crayola color wonders in Disney Princess. This combines two things she loves - the princess and markers! It is very nice to allow her to play with these without feeling like I have to hover over her in case she would get the marker on something. I still have her sit at her play table just in case something...

Crayola Color Wonder is great.  The markers work just like other markers, but they don't have any mess to them.  It is fantastic when you bring them somewhere that you don't have to worry about your children getting marker on someone elses table or carpeting.  The markers only color on the special Color Wonder paper, so there's no worry about them coloring anything else.  It's markers that they can used with good clothes on or take in the car with them.  My children are left handed, so whenever they color or write, they rub their hand thru it and their hands get filthy.  With the Color Wonder... review »
