Should have read these reviews!May 08, 2007
By Ivanca I read reviews for these crayons somewhere else. There, the reviewer boasted about how these crayons were better than Crayola's because Crayola's break and these are more durable. Well, while it is true that none of them have broken, like the previous reviewers said, they fall out of the holders! My daughter was in a bubble bath coloring with them and all of a sudden there was no crayon in the holder. We found it and tried to get it back in but it wouldn't stay. Terrible. And they are MUCH smaller than they appear to be in the picture. They only fill about half the holder and they're skinny like a regular small crayon. Although my daughter thought they were a lot of funny, there must be better tub crayons out there. I will seek them out.

Beware the Purple!Oct 23, 2009
By Amy Mcfarland

My son loves to color with these in the bath. Yes, they do not stay in the holders, but it's really easy to pop them out, and the sticks are still long enough without the holder for kids to have fun drawing with them. I love this set because it comes with a duck clean-up sponge - my son has just as much fun with the sponge as he does with the colors.
That said, BEWARE THE PURPLE!!! All the other colors come off tile/tub/shower surfaces with a quick swipe of the sponge, but the purple just fades. My tub is now covered in light purple markings despite having scrubbed it several times. I now throw that color away the minute I get a new package of "crayons".

These crayons rockMar 03, 2008
By G. Cohen I agree with the users above that the crayons don't stay in the holders. My advice, don't buy the holders. My son has been delighted using these crayons in the tub. They draw easily, are brightly colored, and clean-up in a snap. The crayons are the best I've seen. But yes, ditch the holders.

These are awfulAug 12, 2010
By Jen T. We bought these for my daughter about a month ago and they are really a poor quality product. They won't write on the tub when there is any moisture on it (which renders these fairly pointless) - furthermore, when you finish the first part of the crayon and try to push up some more, the tip constantly falls back down. In other words, the little notches you see are not tight enough to keep the tip up. We bought Crayola bathtub crayons the other day at the store, and they are much better. The tip actually stays up and they write underwater!

Buy Crayola Bath Crayons, instead!!Jul 21, 2010
By Shopping
"Mom"
Well, I made the mistake of not checking the reviews for these tub crayons, on Amazon, before buying on a whim, at our local Target.
First off, these crayons do not work, once they are wet.
Secondly, the waxy part doesn't stay in the plastic part.
Thirdly, they start to fall apart within a week
Finally, they were thrown out within 1 week of using.
Previously, we had the Crayola Bath Crayons and I think those lasted us about 6 months. They draw very well and keep together great. Buy Crayola, instead.
Don't buy these Alex crayons or you'll just throw money in the garbage.
