Crayola and Charm It!

These two brands have teamed up to create a design a charm contest. Kids are encouraged to design something, using their imagination, if their design gets chosen it will be made into a charm accessory that anyone can buy. To celebrate the start of the contest we were invited to spend an afternoon at Dylan’s Candy Bar in NYC.

My kids were able to design and submit it, while enjoying some yummy treats and fun, including a photo booth. My kids really enjoyed the afternoon as they really REALLY love Crayola and cupcakes! I mean if we are being real, what kid doesn’t like crayons?  One of the reasons is important to have contest like this is to let kids know that being creative is important and can be fun.
