Crayons and Markers
Crayons and markers are often the first writing implement a child ever has their hands on. Both crayons and markers come in a very wide variety of colors and qualities. Some types can be picked up at the local grocery store, and are responsible for the majority of artwork found taped to fridges. Other varieties are of a much higher quality, and are used by commercial artists to create much more complex work.

School Bus Yellow
Birdie Blue
Leap Frog Green
Grape Juice Purple
Pumpkin Orange
Bunny Brown
Kitty Cat Black
But in actuality, they were just renames of the same basic combination of colors used in their 8-color boxes for over 100 years. Originally, their fist box of 8 colors contained the following:
Black, Blue, Brown, English Vermilion, Green, Orange, Violet, Yellow

Eventually, they switched out English Vermillion for Red. Blue and Red in particular have changed their true color look over the 100+ year history without changing the name. If you were to color with an original blue or red and with today's blue or red, you'd notice quite a difference.

There is no better way top keep your children entertained than by giving them a container full of kids art supplies. This is a very inexpensive thing to supply. All you really need is a medium sized container and several art supplies for children. Fill the container with markers, construction paper, crayons, scissors, glue, coloring pencils, glitter, washable paint, and paintbrushes. They can use these items to create many different art projects. This would be great for a rainy day activity or any other time that you want to keep your kids entertained for a while.
