Crayola Store

Fun place for kids. Yes, it’s a bit pricey but what kid’s place isn’t?
We bought our tickets online at a slight discount. Kids under 2 are free. Each paying person gets 4 free tokens which you redeem to make things. The employees we encountered were friendly and helpful. The craft lines moved really quickly.
My 4 year old had a blast and my 15 month old really enjoyed the toddler play area.
A few tips:
1. Find metered street parking. We found a 3 hour spot and that was perfect. You won’t spend more than 3 hours here.
2. The indoor playarea (not the toddler one) can get completely chaotic– like UNSAFE chaotic.
3. Bring your own snacks. A pretzel was almost 5 dollars!

This one of a kind place puts the child into the Crayola Experience.
How crayons are made is informative for both child & parent. Loads & loads of arts & crafts, even an area where your child makes and names his own crayon with what ever name he chooses on the wrapper. Create your own markers and sculpt your own figure too.
Only drawback is the cost. Why should the parents admission fee be the same as the child’s? The parent will not be participating in any of the crafts, when the entire experience is for children.

This place is pretty frickin awesome if you’re a kid. The activities are cute and my little cousins had a blast! Used a Groupon that allowed for 2 admissions plus a box of 64 crayons from the Crayola Store next door, ALL for $ 14! I doubt that I would pay the regular admissions fee of $ 12 but if you find a deal I would definitely go for it. The only issue was that there was a festival in Centre Square the weekend we chose to go up so traffic was a little congested. Luckily I packed snacks for the kids and there’s a «dining area» on the 1^st floor. The other issue was that there were some parents who were a little pushy, and if you don’t mind screaming babies then this is a great day trip to keep your kids busy.
P. S. their parking lot is great and cheap, it cost us $ 6 for 3hrs

I liked this store however I am not sure what I expected but I thought there would be different stuff like things that you can’t get in other stores but you can’t. The prices aren’t bad they are compareable

Pros: World’s largest crayon — Big Blue; Tons of Crayola products all in one place; fill your own crayon tin ($ 7.99 but there aren’t enough different colors to fill the tin without repeating colors which I thought was annoying); you can find some of the newer and less common Crayola products all in one place.
Cons: I could find many of the items cheaper on
(with free shipping); it would be nice to have more opportunities to try some of the less common items; this is definitely not the place to come for discounts (you’ll do better when these items go on sale at a mass merchandiser).
Overall, the kids enjoyed it. They were out of the 150 towers when we were there so they didn’t have (IMHO) the best souvenir of our trip to the Crayola Factory next door. I picked up a few things. .. it cost me almost $ 40 for a few art supplies.

It’s just a big store without any spectacular attributes. It was a little boring, in fact. Perhaps if I were still an art teacher, I would have loved it.
