From crayons to colored pencils, paints to coloring books, there hasn&rsquo;t been a time when I haven&rsquo;t had a drawer full of Crayola products in my home. And now as a mom of two six-year-olds, I&rsquo;m passing my love of Crayola onto my boys!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My boys favorite is definitely the Crayola Color Wonder coloring pages. We took Crayola Color Wonder Stow and Go packs on a recent road trip to Yellowstone and the boys colored for <em>hours<\/em>. They loved finding the &ldquo;hidden pictures&rdquo; and colored artwork for everyone we visited on the trip. But the best part? They are mess free! The markers only color on the pages, and not, for example, the seats of the expensive rental car. It was such a great activity for them on our long vacation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/heyletsmakestuff.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Crayola-Gift-Ideas-1-3.jpg\" alt=\"Boy coloring on Crayola Color Wonder sheet surrounded by other coloring sheets and pens.\" class=\"wp-image-74062\" srcset=\"https:\/\/heyletsmakestuff.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Crayola-Gift-Ideas-1-3.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/heyletsmakestuff.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Crayola-Gift-Ideas-1-3-700x525.jpg 700w, https:\/\/heyletsmakestuff.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Crayola-Gift-Ideas-1-3-750x563.jpg 750w, https:\/\/heyletsmakestuff.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Crayola-Gift-Ideas-1-3-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/heyletsmakestuff.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Crayola-Gift-Ideas-1-3-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/heyletsmakestuff.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Crayola-Gift-Ideas-1-3-150x113.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/heyletsmakestuff.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Crayola-Gift-Ideas-1-3.jpg\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Since our house is basically a Crayola art factory these days, I&rsquo;ve been coming up with creative ways to showcase the boys artwork. From framing their favorite drawings to using coloring pages as wrapping paper, we&rsquo;ve come up with lots of ways to actually enjoy their artwork instead of it languishing in a drawer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recently, my mom told the boys she wanted some of their artwork for Christmas. Instead of giving her just the artwork itself, I thought I&rsquo;d come up with some fun ideas to better showcase their drawings and coloring pages for grandma. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These are also fun ideas for grandparents, caregivers, teachers, and more to work with kids to make presents for their parents for the upcoming holidays!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-five-ways-to-turn-children-s-artwork-into-gifts-with-crayola\">Five Ways to Turn Children&rsquo;s Artwork into Gifts with Crayola!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Kid&rsquo;s Artwork Tray<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"801\" data-pin-description=\"Want to pass along the joy of your child's artwork as a present to someone they love?

I went with a bright yellow to match my son&rsquo;s artwork. Let dry overnight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Paint a thin layer of decoupage medium on the back of the artwork, and set it onto the tray. Start in the middle and work outward, trying to avoid bubbles. If needed, use a brayer to work out any bubbles. Let dry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then paint another thin layer decoupage medium on top of the artwork. Let dry. Repeat with a second layer and you&rsquo;re done with your tray!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So cute! My son Cal wanted you to know that this is a portrait of his favorite stuffie, Jack the Giraffe. Jack is eating the leaves on that tree and he thinks they are &ldquo;delicious and nutritious!&rdquo; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Coloring_Page_Bookmarks\"><\/span>Coloring Page Bookmarks<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"801\" data-pin-description=\"Want to pass along the joy of your child's artwork as a present to someone they love?

We&rsquo;re a bit Paw Patrol obsessed in our house, so I grabbed one of their Paw Patrol Crayola Color Wonder sheets for this project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This one is super easy! Simply trim your artwork into a long rectangle, about 2&Prime; wide and 6&Prime; tall. Cut a slightly larger piece of coordinating cardstock. Glue the artwork to the cardstock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then punch a hole at the top and add a ribbon. A bookmark tassel would also be fun! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We&rsquo;ve been reading out of longer chapter books with our boys so I&rsquo;ll also make a few for us&mdash;saving us from the dreaded dog-ear!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Coloring_Pencil_Box\"><\/span>Coloring Pencil Box<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"801\" data-pin-description=\"Want to pass along the joy of your child's artwork as a present to someone they love?

I went with white so the rainbow would stand out! Let dry overnight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Paint a thin layer of decoupage medium on the back of the artwork, and set it on the box. Start in the middle and work outward, trying to avoid bubbles. If needed, use a brayer to work out any bubbles.

I am in love with both of these drawings by my other son, Seb. The one on the left is grandpa and grandma and on the right is his beloved stuffed bear, Hazel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Your child&rsquo;s artwork or coloring page<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Wood frame<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Crayola Project Paint<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Paint brushes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Crayola Model Magic<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Crayola Glue<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>We painted the frames red and a lighter teal (a mix of mostly white and a bit of blue and green).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To make the frames more special, we used Crayola Model Magic to create a thumbprint heart! Crayola Model Magic is a modeling clay that is way less crumbly than other types of clay. My boys love mixing together the different colors to create a huge rainbow of color. We were able to make a light teal using white, blue, and green Model Magic! It was a lot of fun working with them to get the color proportions right to match the paint we mixed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To make the heart, take a small piece of Crayola Model Magic and create a teardrop shape. Have your child press their thumb to create a thumb print in the shape. Then do the same with a second teardrop shape. Then layer the two teardrops to create a thumb print heart!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let the heart dry overnight and adhere it to the painted frame with a bit of glue. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Photo_Frame_Magnets\"><\/span>Photo Frame Magnets<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"801\" data-pin-description=\"Want to pass along the joy of your child's artwork as a present to someone they love?

I love the HUGE range of skin tones in this pack of colored pencils. It&rsquo;s fun to watch them color a whole world of people! These were particularly fun in photo frames because they look like vacation snapshots!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Magnets make the perfect gift for a grandparent or other loved one. My nephew gave me a magnet of an owl he drew a few years ago and it&rsquo;s still on our fridge&mdash;I treasure it! So I knew it was the perfect sort of gift for a grandparent to proudly display on their refrigerator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To make these photo frame magnets, simply cut out the artwork or coloring pages to fit just behind the photo frames. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Use glue to adhere the frame to the artwork. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want your frame to bit a bit more sturdy, you can add a piece of cardstock behind the frame as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, glue a magnet to the back! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1200\" data-pin-description=\"Want to pass along the joy of your child's artwork as a present to someone they love?
