Promotional Crayons: Adding Colour to Your Promotions

With promotional items, most brands aim at adults as their target demographic. And that’s perfectly fine; after all, we want our brand to appeal to folks who can support it financially and professionally. But what about approaching the game from a different angle? What if we were to provide a few branded items for our beloved young ones, the children?

Let’s face it, everyone loves gifts, but adults just don’t get excited over free stuff as much as children do. Now, the best way to put a promo product out there for the kids to enjoy is to combine a few elements:

• Colours
• Creativity
• Hours of fun
• Safety
• Promotion of education
• Promotion of critical thinking
• Artistic and creative growth

Therefore, the solution is obvious: we will opt for promotional custom-branded crayons.

The power of colours

The cool thing about crayons is that they allow us to expand our efforts without even trying. For instance, let’s say that we screen-print a logo. How do we make it appeal to people in different ways? Well, how about printing it on each crayon wrapper, all in the accompanying colour?

With so many vibrant options, the crayon colours are the perfect way to bring attention to our company logos, slogans, and other related info. The kids will not pay attention to it, but their parents, who buy the art supplies, definitely will. And if we approach our branding strategy just right, they will become our repeat customers for years to come.

Creative learning in schools with logo printed crayons

Branded crayons are definitely a school’s best friend. If we run an educational facility, we can definitely use crayons as a means of promoting the school spirit. We can print the school mascot, the logo, or the name of it either on the package or on the crayon wrappers. By sharing our own branded items with parents, children, and colleagues, we bring them together on a deeper level.

Charities and fundraisers

Donating is a noble cause, especially if the kids are the ones receiving the gifts. With that in mind, we can use crayons as branded items in two different ways. 

Firstly, we can donate them to charities and organise fundraisers even if our brand has nothing to do with child-rearing or humanitarian work. By giving products to kids, such as crayons, we’re showing how much we care and how ready we are to help fight for a good cause. Next, if we happen to run a charity or organise a fundraiser, we can definitely use promotional crayons as promo merch for a specific event. Not only is it on point as a product, but it will also be the perfect gift for any child attending. Well, it will also be a great gift for the parents.

Colouring fun on-the-go

If we combine crayons with colouring sheets or colouring books, we can get the perfect travel combo gift for the little ones. We know that some children get bored during long trips. So, in order to keep them occupied, it makes sense to buy them a colouring book and accompanying crayons. If we take it a step further, we can even sell two separate types of crayons. Regular-sized ones can be used at home. However, pocket-sized crayons can be the definitive solution for trips, vacations, holiday travels, or anything similar.

An wide range of personalised crayons on offer

Just looking at the selection of modern crayons makes us feel stunned. Aside from the regular ones, we have highlighter crayons, popper crayons, mini-popper crayons, and so on. Depending on what kind of business we run and what we intend to communicate with the clients, we will opt for one design choice over the rest.

Safety first with promotional crayons

Naturally, we always go with the more eco-friendly option that doesn’t pollute the Earth. More importantly, we aim for crayons that won’t do any harm to children, either primarily (swallowing the crayon) or secondarily (long exposure to the colours and materials of crayons). Safety must come first, and our branded crayons are as safe as they can be.

Extensive printing and branding options

We offer a wide variety of printing options on our collection of printed crayons, and are at the forefront of print technology. As such, we can also offer a range of printed crayons branded in UltraHD full-colour print to a standard most suppliers can only dream of!
