Crayola Holiday Giveaway - WOW!

Crayola is offering so many GREAT and easy ways to give some really awesome toys this Christmas season.

Have you seen this post about the HOT sale at Amazon right now?  It looks like the Glow station has gone up in price, but the others are still on sale for $9.99.  I noticed Kroger has these toys on sale too.  Crayola has some AWESOME coupons on their facebook page and even a refund on some of these HOT toys.  I LOVE their new line of products and am jealous they didn't have all these cool toys for me when I was a kid, lol.
Crayola actually sent me 4 separate toy items to test out and review AND they are gonna allow me to give a gift pack out to ONE super lucky reader!

The first toy is the Crayola Sound Studio.  This one comes with Color Wonder paper and markers but adds a twist to coloring.  You place the paper on the base unit and add your sound card, then you just press the sound you want to capture and touch the part of the paper you want the sound to go.  Then, when you are coloring, your sound plays.  My kids had loads of fun making a cat "honk" or "bark" instead of meow.  The toy also comes with the smaller color wonder markers but will hold the larger ones as well.  (This toy is not recommended for kids under 3 and manuf age suggestion is 5 and up.  However, my 4 year old had a blast with this and had no trouble working the sound cards)

The next toy is the Presto dots Model Magic.  This toy does require a little assistance from parents to start out (you need to cover the "creature" with the white mold as a base.  After that though, we let the girls go nuts.  As you can see here, Zoey got a decent start on her creature and I learned my 6 year old is much smarter than I thought!  The kit comes with 6 colors: white, green, orange, blue, red, and yellow.  Well, my little Zoey loves the color turquoise so on her own, she blended the blue and green and MADE turquoise!  Pretty cool that this kit allows the colors to blend like that. (this toy is not recommended for kids under 3 and my 4 year old needed quite a bit of supervision with this toy.  I think my 6 year old was the perfect age for this.)

The third toy one reader will win is the Glow Explosion.  We didn't get a chance yet to play with this one, so you might want to check out the video of this toy on Amazon.  I look forward to playing with this one later in the week. (my kids want to finish their Presto dot creatures first though, lol)

And finally, no gift pack would be complete without the toy that started it all:

Crayons of course!  64 crayons to be exact.   But, crayola couldn't just stop there, you can actually go to Story Studio online and upload a picture of your child and create stories and pictures you can then print out for them to color.  That is so cool!  Check out just one of the pages Zoey and I created on this site.
How cool is that?  You could make personal coloring books for the whole family and use them as stocking stuffers!  It was really easy to do and if you have a webcam, you can even use that to take a picture from the site.  Check it out for yourself.  Just go to Crayola Story Studio and use the code "PRY4DBJJ" to take it on a test drive.  Trust me, your kid will have a blast!

For other Crayola gift ideas, check out their Holiday Gift Guide.

And now, for the giveaway.  One very lucky winner will receive a prize pack with all four of these toys.  Giveaway will end next Sunday December 19th.  One entry per reader please.  I want you to check out the Crayola Holiday Gift Guide and tell me what toy you think looks the most fun!
Good luck everyone.
Winner will have 48 hours to contact me or a new winner will be chosen.

Disclosure: I was given one of each toy listed above to review and one to giveaway to one of my readers.  These were provided by Crayola through MyBlogSpark in exchange for an honest review.  No other compensation was received and all opinions as always are my own.

I think my Kids would love the Glow Explosion they keep seeing it in ad's and really like it. I think the sound studio would also be a really neat thing to be able to color and have your drawing make noises at you. Thanks so much for such a great giveaway!

The Crayon Maker is what I think the most awesome product out there! My son called me in the living room the other day and said Mom you know how you get made when my brother breaks crayons? Well now you wont get made b/c we can just make new crayons with the broken ones!

Super awesome giveaway, just in time for Christmas.
The Crayola Gift Guide has so many fun items, but I think my son's favorite would probably be one of your giveaways, the Crayola Sound Studio, I can just see my son's surprise when his coloring comes alive with sound, and him laughing and going over and over the same spot to hear the sound again and again.
Thank you for the chance to win this special and long-lasting fun giveaway, just in time to wrap and put under the tree.

I'd love a chance to win - with 6 kiddos, each item would be very well loved here. :) My 5 year old is the biggest artist in the family and we are actually making homemade muffin tin crayons this Christmas for the 3 year old with big sister's leftovers. :) I think the sound studio looks so fun!! Thanks for the chance to win! And, thanks for your great blog - we are in another state and I still find a lot of terrific deals on your posts.
