The Crayon Man - Family Book Box

Did you know that colorful crayons are a pretty recent invention? And that the man who invented them was the creator of the Crayola crayon company? Edwin Binney was a man who loved color and through the encouragement of his wife, sought to bring color to children's writing. This book is fun, educational, and is full of gorgeous illustrations. 

May's Box will center around The Crayon Man and will focus on exploring the colors all around us in this beautiful world. 🌍 Your child will learn about how people have used natural resources like flowers, spices, fruits and vegetables and more to create their own natural dyes and will even get to make their very own dye!
