I love the IDEA of these "crayola beginnings" markers, paints, and crayons shaped for a first grasp... so that even the little bitty ones can have some creativity in their life. However, they, by design, sit with the point facing UP... so anytime the kid grabs for it... they get a handful of MESS and FRUSTRATION!
My solution is an EGG CARTON!
Discard the packaging and place the colors upside down in an empty egg carton.
Then, when the child reaches for one... he grabs the bulbous end with the marking side down and ready for paper contact.
Plus, it makes clean-up and storage easy.
