The Crayola Factory

I finally got to the Crayola Factory! I have been waiting so long!
It was even better than I imagined!



We first saw a show about how crayons and markers are made. The guy asked if anyone knew the color of a crayon, everyone said "orange" or "carrot" because he said it was named after a little girls favorite food. It is a good thing mommy taught kindergarten because she said "macaroni and cheese" and we won a prize (markers, crayons and clay!)


I am in the corner with daddy making a party hat. Mommy's camera isn't working very well, sorry! I loved doing arts and crafts the whole time I was there! I got to do whatever I wanted! Messes were ok too!


Here daddy and I are painting. This was a little crazy. Think about it, more that 20 kids and their parents in a room, painting! Then you had to stand in line for the drying machine so you could finish off your windsock!

I also got to play with sidewalk chalk and build things with the modeling clay. I made sand art in a heart container and colored a little lizard with fabric markers. It was the best day ever!

We also went to the National Canal Museum. I learned how a canal works and got to push a boat through one. They also had lots of other things to play with. Then we went on a horse and carriage ride around Easton, PA. Lastly we visited the PEZ museum and had ice cream!
