Regular crayons are safe, don’t get me wrong, but a lot of what they use to create them aren’t always the most plant friendly or sustainable overall. So, I love that Honeysticks uses beeswax (which is all natural) and even increases the need for bee farming, which we all know is vital right now. The colors are still great, life-like, and even still have that traditional and familiar scent of a regular crayon. Sometimes making these small changes can make a big difference.
