We started the 90 degree day at the zoo and worked up a big hunger for a late lunch at a great tavern/pizzeria. As delicious pizza takes time, we settled in with the 5 kids (ages 1, 3, 4, 6, & 8) for a bit of a wait.
Although I wasn't sure that coloring would over well with the older boys, they immediately felt at home with the crayons presented in a green camouflage Doodlebugz Crayola Crayon Keeper. The young artists worked on their masterpieces while snacking on a basket of crackers and lemonades.There's nothing better than a great meal with good friends.
One of my young friends gave me a signed copy of his beautifully rendered Aquarium art. I offered him the Doodlebugz as a token of appreciation (you should have seen his smile!).
The Doodlebugz Keeper ($14) is a well-made carrier by Princess Linens. It folds into a compact roll with Velcro closure and a sturdy ribbon handle. They come with a box of 24 washable Crayola crayons. Wisely, there are more than 24 slots so those extra crayons lurking in my car finally found found a proper home.
Princess Linens is offering Baby Toolkit readers a 15% discount on orders (enter the coupon code babytoolkit at check-out) . We'll also be reviewing their First Scrubs this month.

Thank you for this! I just ordered the keeper and a chalkboard placemat for a little one's 2nd birthday!
Thanks for this. I will be ordering...My only question is : How do the crayons do when left in the car? I would like to leave it in the car....I wonder if the washable ones fare better, worse, or same in a garage....
mimi & moe's mom:
So far the crayons have fared well in our garage (though it's built into the ground and cool). I don't think any crayon is going to do too well in the 90+ degree heat in an unshaded car.
