In 1903, we introduced the first box of 8 Crayola Crayons and sold them for a nickel. Included were the same 8 colours that are found in an 8‑pack today: red yellow blue green orange brown violet (purple) black.
Do you offer helpful tips for using the Crayola Digital Light Designer?
We hope the following tips help you enjoy hours of fun with the Digital Light Designer! Troubleshooting tips if the unit is not functioning as expected: 1. Do you have new, fresh batteries and are they installed correctly? 2. Is the unit being used on a flat, hard, level surface? The switch underneath must be engaged. 3. Does the Red LED on the wand light up? If not, check the batteries are in properly. (new) 4. If you cannot get past the main menu screen, turn off nearby lights in the room or move out of direct sunlight. Strong outside or indoor light can interfere with the operation of the unit. 5. The wand is similar to a remote. It needs to be aimed rather than held like a pencil. It works from about an inch away, when with the light beam on or tap wand directly on the dome surface. 6. When the unit is turned on, the unit cycles the colours line by line. You can interrupt this process by tapping on the dome. If you don’t see the coloured lines, something in the room is causing interference. 7. You cannot draw on the top of the dome, only the sides. 8. To rotate the displayed image, hold the stylus on the dock (the 2 white lines near the base). The lines will turn red, then blue. When the lines turn blue, move the stylus along the dock to rotate the images around the Digital Light-Designer. 9. There are 3 menus available, however, only 2 appear at first. 10. Two wands CANNOT be used at the same time. Two wands cause issues similar to having lights on in the room. 11. What type of adapter are you using? USE ONLY AC ADAPTERS WITH MATCHING SPECIFICATIONS. AC ADAPTER SPECIFICATIONS INPUT: 100 – 120VAC, 50 – 60 Hz, 0.8A OUTPUT: 6.0VDC, 2.0A, 12.0W/VA

The 100 billionth Crayola Crayon, named “blue ribbon”, was created on February 6, 1996 by Mr. Fred Rogers. To commemorate the making of the 100 billionth crayon, we produced a limited edition Crayola 96 Big Box. Each specially marked box included a commemorative blue ribbon crayon with a white label. Winning crayons were wrapped in foil labels. While the contest has expired and all prizes had to be claimed by June 10, 1996, blue ribbon crayons continue to be special keepsake or collectible crayons.

There are no duplicate colours found in this item. The Telescoping Crayon Tower contains 118 regular Crayola Crayons, 16 Metallic FX Crayons, and 16 Glitter Crayons.
The basic ingredients contained in Crayola Crayons are paraffin wax and colour pigment. The ingredients are the same for all Crayola Crayon colours, with some modifications in special effects crayons. We manufacture almost 3 billion crayons each year. The paraffin wax is melted and mixed together with pre-measured amounts of colour pigments. We purchase the powder pigments and either use individual colours or mix the pigments to produce the many colours of Crayola Crayons. The hot wax mixture is poured into moulding machines. In about four to seven minutes, the crayons cool and become solid. The crayon manufacturing process can be viewed on our web site by visiting http://www.crayola.com/factory/preview/factory_floor/crayon_mfg.htm. There is a book available titled “Crayons From Start To Finish”. The book offers a behind-the-scenes look at the whole manufacturing process. To obtain this book, please visit your local library. As a further reference, the ISBN is 1−56711−390−7 and the author of the book is Samuel G. Woods.
