Gel Crayons for the STEAM Lab

Help me give my students gel crayons for beautiful art projects and drawings.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Allard's STEAM Lab's classroom raised $400

My Project

I have never had or used gel crayons before, but have seen how beautiful the art work comes out even for young students when using them. I need two sets of 36 gel crayons for each of my classroom tables.

Gel crayons or sticks make art drawings look like they have been painted, but are quick and easy, and dry fast.

Students can take their finished art home with them without a long wait time, making storage in the classroom unnecessary. They are bright and fun and I think kids of all ages will enjoy using them.
