Honeysticks Beeswax Crayons - Originals - 12 Pack – Stage 1 First Crayons

Every creative journey begins with a first mark on the page. The Honeysticks Originals Beeswax Crayons have been thoughtfully designed for toddlers who are just beginning to explore colour, movement and self-expression through art.

Short, chunky and wonderfully easy to hold, these crayons are perfectly sized for small hands learning to grip and create. Their sturdy design makes them far more resistant to breaking than traditional crayons, allowing little artists to enjoy drawing with confidence while developing the hand strength and coordination that will support future writing skills.

Handmade in New Zealand using 100% pure beeswax and food-grade colour pigments, Honeysticks Originals offer a beautifully natural introduction to creative play. They contain no paraffin wax, artificial fillers or unnecessary additives, making them a reassuring choice for families looking for safe, high-quality art materials for young children.

The beeswax used to create Honeysticks is a natural by-product of honey production, giving each crayon its gentle honey aroma while supporting a more sustainable approach to manufacturing. Combined with vibrant food-grade pigments, these crayons produce rich, colourful marks that glide smoothly across paper, card and other suitable art surfaces.

This set includes twelve joyful colours, encouraging children to experiment, make discoveries and express themselves freely. Whether they're creating their very first scribbles, exploring shapes and patterns, or simply enjoying the process of making marks, every drawing becomes part of their creative journey.

Lovingly handcrafted by family makers in New Zealand, Honeysticks Originals were created with the belief that children's first art materials should be both safe and inspiring. Durable, beautifully made and designed to nurture imagination from an early age, they are a timeless addition to any creative space.

DOES HONEYSTICKS CONTAIN ANY ALLERGENS?

Our beeswax crayons are non-toxic and free of the top 8 allergens (Milk, Eggs, Fish ,Crustacean Shellfish, Tree Nuts, Peanuts, Wheat and Soybeans) Our bath crayons contain soy which is used to soften the crayon. These are made on the same machines as our beeswax crayons so there could be a chance of cross contamination.

DO YOU USE PARRAFIN WAX IN YOUR CRAYONS?

NO! Paraffin wax is derived from petroleum, coal or shale oil. We don't want any of that near kids!

WHAT IS THE WHITE POWDER ON MY CRAYONS?

You may see a light powdery appearance on your Honeysticks crayons. This is called Blooming. This blooming naturally forms on the surface of most beeswax after a period of time. The bloom is harmless it's actually a sign of pure beeswax and can be removed by simply wiping the crayon with a soft cloth.
