Buying a small pack of crayons is obviously a bad idea if you want certain colors. The crayons appear to be a casual way to make kids aware of differences between people. And you can say "but kids shouldn't be made aware of these things", but that is crap. Do you just want to hand them their diploma when they turn 18 and say "oh yeah, there are different races and some people hate other people based on this." Self explanatory really, but every new computer comes with a webcam, so go for it.

Some people will just never understand. But yea, your right. Lets pick apart her sentence structure instead of acknowledging what her whole fricking point was about in the first place. That was sarcasm. i know i have to point that out.

While I agree I also wonder why they're around now and nobody thought of the idea back then when crayons first came around. *shrug* Oh well. I also get the box with sixty-four however I haven't colored in years. LOL love the glitter crayons though.

It's all about integration and community cohesion. But then i'm not for the whole integration, multicultural way of things so the crayons suck in my opinion. Kids are easy targets for social engineering and i'm sad this is the agenda more than ever now. Children should not be used as lab rats in my opinion.

TOTALLY WITH YOU! All these shades are available in the box of 64! It's just helps to point out the differences to kids who haven't noticed. These were on my 6 year old's required school list and I was enraged! She doesn't see skin color, why does her school need to point it out (Catholic school, by the way).

Cute! I've never seen these before. I agree with your comment too.  I think people are always trying to come up with something new and different to make that almighty buck.

Actually I think it's a fantastic idea! I've often thought since childhood why there wasn't a crayon called skin instead of everyone having to be peach or pink, but that would have brought up the racial skin tone problem. Well, I guess they've solved it now. The only issue I think is calling it something so awfully PC like "multicultural" crayons.
