As you can see in the image above, this crayon has an egg shape to make it easier for your toddler to hold and scribble with. It comes in 6 crayons and is a long-lasting and durable crayon to use. Furthermore, it is washable, making it simple to remove even your toddler’s drawings on their skin or the wall.

These crayons are just the right size for one-year-olds. They are easy to grip and for them to produce colors on paper. They come in bright primary colors. Made for a cute Easter present since the crayons happen to be egg-shaped.

Bought these for my one-year-old. I was excited to start exploring art with him. He was instantly captivated by these crayons and gradually learned that they can be stacked, nesting inside each other. Now when we do "art" he spends a lot of time simply stacking them. He's only 14 months so he's just fascinated with exploring how different objects look, feel, and work together. ...

We have only good to say about these! My year and a half old son loves them as he can easily hold them, they do not roll off the table because of the shape as well as, he decided to draw us a Picasso on the wall and it wiped right off. These are wonderful! Highly recommended!

It has a comfortable round barrel design, making it easy for a toddler to grip even with small hands and make their first marks.

Bought them for my 11month old, she is always trying to color with her older siblings. These are easy for her to grip, and she has already thrown them multiple times and they haven't broken. Nice bright colors too.

Handmade with 100% pure New Zealand beeswax and Food Grade Pigments for Color, you can’t go wrong with this set of crayons. It has a unique chubby shape that makes it easier for small hands to hold but more difficult to break. Due to the natural beeswax ingredient, this crayon has a wonderful honey scent that you and your child will enjoy.

These crayons are PERFECT. The colours are varied and, well, colourful. They are the ideal size for little hands (not so long the hand slides down, not so thin they break). I saw some people saying they got dirty easily but these are still clean after many uses. They also smell amazing. I couldn’t have found better crayons. My one year old loves these as much as I do! Worth every cent.

This is a finger crayon that your toddler can use to color their artwork with their fingertips. This crayon allows your children to make art with the faces of farm animals. It comes in a variety of shapes, including dog, cat, rooster, pig, sheep, and cow, and your toddler will undoubtedly enjoy using it. This crayon, which comes in 24 different colors, is ideal for choosing from.

My younger 18 month old daughter loves these. They don’t roll away like traditional crayons and when she doesn’t feel like coloring they are fun to stack.

If the previous one had a farm character, this one has a star shape with six different bright colors. It has a chubby shape that makes it easy to hold for your child. Moreover, this is a bathtub crayon that will allow your toddler to use their imagination wherever they go.

best tub crayon out there. durable and it doesn't dissolve in the water even when my son would let it float there throughout the whole bath. the colors are vivid and its great for little hands

Let’s move on to this rainbow-colored crayon designed for a toddler’s imagination development. It, like the previous one, is in the shape of a star, but it also has a fun texture that will make it easy for your toddler to grip. What’s more, it comes in six different colors that your children will enjoy using.

These crayons are small as mentioned in other reviews, but they are a good size for the little hands they were designed for. My kids (15m and 5y) both enjoyed using them. I like that they do not have a paper covering. It is also neat that you can color two lines at once due to their shape. I’m happy with them!

Last but not least. A washable crayon set that, sure, allows you to give it to your toddler with peace of mind without worrying about a scribbled-on-the-wall mess. It has a triangular barrel design that fits nicely in your toddler’s hand as well as prevents the crayon from rolling away and getting lost.

Basic crayons, my one year old likes them.
