Crayola, the brand that sparks imagination through color, believes every child should be able to creatively and accurately color themselves into the world they see around them.

With the Colors of the World crayons, Crayola hopes to cultivate a more inclusive world for children of all ages, races, cultures, and ethnicities.

The crayon packs feature side panels that serve as color references and each crayon is wrapped in a gradient skin tone label with the color name in English, Spanish and French, and purposefully has a realistic color name – such as Light Golden, Deep Almond and Medium Deep Rose – all to help kids easily find the shade they identify as their own.
