 I know you all love these Crayola giveaways…I’m so tickled to bring you another awesome prize pack from the folks at Crayola & My Blogspark.  Every time I get one of these packages in the mail the whole family gets excited.  This package was no exception, and all of the materials inside were perfect for kids going back to school or kids who are learning at home!  There is a cool dry erase board, window markers, fabric markers, several items from the new Wild Notes Line, and more!  Ella loves using the Wild Notes Notebook for writing down her homework at school and practicing her spelling words.  I’m using the index cards to help Sam with his sight words and alphabet recognition.  Max uses the dry erase board to practice his spelling words (perfect use for this board!).  And I’m not going to lie, I kept the Wild Notes peel & stick pads for myself!  The whole family is getting something out of this set!  And you can win some of these awesome products in a gift pack for your family!
Here’s a bit of information about these fabulous Crayola products:
Color your way back to school this year! Brighten up your kids’ school day with fun CrayolaTM products that help bring color to just about any surface. Whether it’s taking notes in the classroom or showing school spirit by drawing on windows, Crayola is helping kids explore every color of the rainbow. The vibrant new twist on school products is sure to add a splash of color to the day and help kids stay organized so they can ace exams and presentations while letting their creativity shine.
Bring colorful ideas to life…not just on paper! The Crayola Marker collection and Dry Erase Products allow children to express themselves and show off their school spirit.

Kids can add their own artwork on backpacks or create wild, brightly colored designs on a new pair of jeans or a t-shirt with Crayola Bright Fabric Markers. The bright colors will “pop” off dark fabrics, showing kids creations in a whole new light!
Get the whole team pumped up this season with Crayola Window Mega Markers and Crystal Effects Window Markers. The oversized Window Mega Markers come in a special school color assortment. Decorate the family minivan for the first big game of the season using the broad, brilliantly colored strokes; kids can create amazing effects with Crystal Effects Window Markers on windows that dry to bright, crystallized colors. Both markers are completely washable and designed to work on all glass surfaces.
Keep busy family schedules organized as the new school year starts with Crayola’s black and white Dual-Sided Dry-Erase Board Set. The board provides twice the dry-erase drawing fun and organization for kids and families. Two surfaces double the drawing area and make it more fun for kids to play tic-tac-toe and word games, practice spelling words and math problems or leave a message for mom. The board comes with a pack of eight Crayola Washable Dry-Erase Bright Crayons. Colors cleanly and easily wipe off each side for endless creative play. The set also includes a machine-washable “E-Z erase” cloth and the classic Crayola built-in crayon sharpener.
Take note-taking or study sessions up a notch with the multitude of colors in the Wild Notes Line.
Combine fun and learning with Crayola’s Wild Notes Index Cards. Kids can make presentation notes or flash cards with different colors using just one pen. The convenient spiral-binding at the top allows for easy flipping and the perforated cards allow for clean tear-out.
Writing special notes to friends can be fun, but writing on peel n’ stick paper with surprising colors on each note is even more exciting. Crayola’s Wild Notes Sticky Notes use one unique pen for kids to colorfully leave messages with fun shapes anywhere for themselves or for a friend. The sticky notes are the perfect size for quick reminders
Kids will love doing their homework this year with Crayola’s Wild Notes 1 Subject Notebook. Watch as amazing colors change on each page with the Wild Notes pen. Convenient spiral-binding allows for easy flipping.
