Who should choose Crayola?

Crayola suits parents and teachers who want a predictable, easy-to-find clay with ages on the label and buckets that reseal between sessions. Older kids and adults who want finer detail or a stone-like finish may prefer a premium air-dry clay. For anything functional, you need kiln clay and a firing.
