How many adults have a box of crayons in their homes?

I do – I have a small box of 8 of the fat crayons for preschoolers and a big box of the regular crayons in 64 different colors. We break them out of the crafts box when kids come over for a visit.

I can teach young ones how to draw several different flowers with stems and leaves, a duck and a rabbit. My grandmother taught me how to draw a pansy – they were her favorite flowers- when I was just a little kid.

We keep an assortment of coloring books on hand, but to me the biggest challenge about coloring is facing a blank sheet of paper and thinking up something to draw.

I hope some day in the future a grown kid will think of me and the flowers and animals I taught him or her how to draw.
