The Wonder of a Box of Crayons

Welcome back to Babylicious! Thanks for visiting again. If you've enjoyed reading my blog, subscribe to my RSS feed to get regular updates on what's new at Babylicious.

One of the “must-haves” in the Go-bag has always been a box of crayons (or coloured pencils).  The ability of this colourful box to keep my restless toddler’s bottom firmly planted in the restaurant high chair has been nothing short of amazing.  So when Gavin’s Pelikan colour pencils were running down to their last leds, hubby and I decided to get another box.

I’ve seen Pelikan stationery at Times Bookshop and Parkson but don’t ever buy it from Times.  A box of colour Pelikan colour pencils at Times will cost you something like RM17 but only RM12 at Parkson.

While browsing through MPH Bookstore in 1Utama, I saw this:

It was a Thomas and Friends Carry-Along Colouring Set!  It comes with over 70 pages of colouring and activity pages AND 8 Thomas and Friends crayons:

It’s a good size for Gavin to hold it on his own without it being cumbersome.  And it was all for RM10.90!  What a bargain!

I managed to pry Gavin away from the Thomas and Friends‘ section of MPH by promising to buy him the crayons which kept him occupied in the carseat all the way home.
