Butterflies in their stomachs (and well, let's face it, yours too!) are fluttering fast, as your little ones will soon be starting school, some for the very first time. The start of the first week of school is always filled with anticipation, apprehension and excitement. You want to make sure that your little ones have everything that they will not only need to help start the new year off on a good path, but will spark their budding knowledge and creativity.
With this in mind, the folks at Crayola have released several new products designed to get your children on the road to creativity both in and out of the classroom. Our family was privileged to be able to have the opportunity to review one of the newly launched back-to-school products to review.
Designed specifically in mind for children ages 7 and up,
Wild Notes Black Notebook provides older children with a unique twist on creating stories and drawings. My twelve year-old son is a budding writer/artist, and no matter where we go, he always carries three things with him---a story book, a small spiral notebook and a few colored pencils for writing and sketching when inspiration strikes! Immediately upon trying out the
Wild Notes Black Notebook, he was quick to mention how much he liked the contrasting colors on the pages. The pages throughout this one-subject notebook are solid black with wide-ruled lines. The
Wild Notes Metallic Pen, which is included along with the notebook, produce really striking silver/metallic colors on every page that you write on. My son felt that this interesting combination of colors immensely highlighted his creative writing.
The Wild Notes Black Notebook is adaptable to use along with all of those upcoming math lessons, social studies, science and creative writing projects.
