It's hard to believe there are still places that don't need gimmicks, but the Crayola Factory proves it to be true! While there, your children can have the best time writing on clear glass walls, drawing on floor with chalk, fingerpainting, "drying" their art projects in a big oven, and so much more. This place inspires creativity and fun for... more

We went to the Crayola Factory a few weeks before Christmas. It was great. They have a lot of hands on activities using Crayola products. Some were Christmas themed such as doing block printed Christmas ornaments. There is a crayon making exhibit, play areas, crafts, and you get token to use in the machines for special crayons, markers, or materials.... more

We had a ball last Friday with rain all day and no where to go, so we headed for the Crayola Factory. Well what a wonderful day of hands on coloring, sculpting and painting. We had so many crafts in our little bag given at the door that we weren't sure what we would do with them all. It was... more

Recently visited the Crayola Crayon Factory in Easton, PA. This was a perfect place for the preschooler/elementary age child to get creative. We were able to watch a live demonstration about how crayons were made & make lots of neat crafty crayola projects. There is also a wonderful gift shop located just outside the factory- it is quite big. Make... more

This wasn't planned in our trip, just a stop on the way home. I wish we would have had at least 4 hours here there is so much for kids to do. They can paint with melted crayons, build with Model Magic, stamp onto a paper windsock, etc. For an extra fee they can make other things, too. It is... more

We passed by Easton on our way back from the Poconos. Since I have a 2 year old and a 4 year old, it is natural for us to visit the Crayola Factory. I usually read TA review before I visit any place. I am not sure why I didn't check this time. I wish I had read it. Then... more

We recently brought our 3 yr old to the Crayola Factory/Canal Museum. As many reviews have stated, it is not an actual factory, however, moreso rooms with crafts/activities the children can do. The day we went was very hot outside, which we thought was perfect for a day spent inside with AC, however, since it was so crowded, it got... more

I can't understand negative reviews for anyone who researched this place before planning the trip. It is not big, nor is it the Crayola manufacturing plant. It's an tourist attraction set up on the 2nd floor of a building (1st floor is check in and a group lunch area) in the heart of Easton (nice area) with a number of... more

Based on the reviews I read I was not expecting much and what we got was average. I can say we've done it, but we won't be back. The place was way too crowded - as I'm not tolerant of crowds, this was a big turn-off for me. As others have said, the "factory", and the term factory is used... more

We recently visited the Crayola "factory" with high hopes that it would be great fun for our four and one year olds. I use the term factory loosely because this is really just an overcrowded, chaotic, germ infested couple of rooms with a few stations with crayons, markers, and modeling clay for kids to play with. I was in constant... more
