Spotlight: Creative - Soy Crayons!


Natural Soy Rock Crayons by Clementine Art

I was in Whole Foods this morning getting my usual coffee and croissant and came across the most wonderful creative art supply. Natural soy crayons!

Clementine Art's tag line, "non-toxic is just the beginning" is right, it is just the beginning. We're always teaching our kids that natural is the way to go for most everything and this extents to art supplies as well. I picked up the Soy Crayon Rocks on the double and brought them home to test out. My kids love them. The shape is fascinating to them. To date, they've only had crayons that looked like the standard writing utensil kind and they are so curious how little rocks can have colour.

Clementine Art products are sourced responsibly and made in the USA. They're all non-toxic and safe. They are definitely setting a higher standard for health and safety in kids' products.

Going on Clementine Art's site, they also have natural modeling dough, paint and markers! I spoke with Megan at Clementine Art and she tells me the paint and markers will be shipping December 15th, 2009, so we are definitely stocking up on these and the rest of their great products for stocking stuffers and gifts for all our little friends.
