The Melissa and Doug 10 Jumbo Triangular Crayons set is one of the coolest crayon sets we have ever found. These are some super bright crayon colors here. Melissa and Doug have made orange more orange, purple more purple, and green? What can we say it is the greenest green we have ever seen put into a crayon. All the bright colors aside the 10 Jumbo Triangular Crayons from Melissa and Doug have a lot more going for them. Why triangular? Well that way they don't roll away and end up trapped under the couch, the triangular shape also lends itself to an easier grip for the little ones. What else can we say other than hey these are stronger than other crayons we have tested, and they have the quality you have come to expect from Melissa and Doug. With these bright, vibrant, non-toxic super strong, 10 Jumbo Triangular Crayons from Melissa and Doug you will have your little artist well on their way to painting the next Mona Lisa!

Durable Crayons That Don't Taste Good, Hurrah
While these crayons do break (if, for example, your toddler leaves them on the floor and you or your husband steps on them, they are likely to break) it would take a lot of concentrated effort to break them while drawing. They are very durable.

We also like that:
-Apparently they do not taste as good as Crayola crayons. My dedicated wax-eater took one bite and has not aimed them at her mouth since.
-They do not have wrappers so your toddler does not need you to repeatedly "open it".
-They come in a fairly durable, handy plastic case.
-They are triangular an thus, do not roll (under the couch, for example).

Cons:
-I have a hard time seeing how I could efficiently sharpen these. Advice in the comments section (besides using one of my dear kitchen knives) is welcome...

My daughter has used the Crayola jumbo-sized crayons and while those are not bad, these are definitely superior. In my opinion, they are worth the price.

Best First Set of Crayons
We bought these crayons for my son when he turned 17 months old. Looking at their design I knew that they would be the perfect crayons for him. The triangular shape keep them from rolling. The size of the crayons are perfect for his little hands. They are extremely durable. My son has broken more than his fair share of those slender crayola crayons, but these are still in perfect condition after 3 months of having them. He has thrown them, pounded them on the table, and even put them inside his toy box and they still are in like new condition.

The best crayons on the market!
My two year old broke every crayon we had. Except for these!!! They are hard, but easy to color with, perfect size for toddler and even chewing on them won't break them!!!

Holds up nicely
I wanted a thick chalk that my 2 young grandchildren could use without breaking. The small size chalk have all broken into unuseable pieces. These nice large thick pieces are just great.

Great Purchase
I love these crayons. I recommend them to anyone and everyone with toddlers. My daughter loves to color. But, she was always breaking her crayons. These do not break. They also don't roll all over the table and the case is perfect as well. They were delivered very fast too.
