“The mall was crazy busy. I had to park on the 6th level of the ramp. Crayola was still calm with only 1 family in line ahead of us. Love that they change up the activities offered so it's like a new experience each time we go.”

“My favorite part of this store was that you could by individual crayons by the color. If you love Crayola, you'll love this store!”
