Safe Art Supplies for Children



With lots of recent publicity people are beginning to understand the dangers of toxins in children toys. The huge number of toy recalls in 2007 finally woke mothers and fathers up to be aware of what their children were playing with.


But what about the crayons, paints, and clay that children are always putting in their mouths? Do you think the limits for toxic chemicals in Pens, Paint, and Modeling Wax is rigorous enough? Many Waldorf Schools and parents seeking natural alternatives are using products produced by Stockmar. Stockmar is a company who is leading the way in safe art supplies for children. All of their products meet the regulations for food safety which is much more rigorous that the regulations for the toy industry.


Stockmar has always selected the finest raw materials and manufacturing procedures. All raw materials are carefully selected and the manufacturing techniques are carefully controlled. This guarantees that Stockmar products are harmless to your children's health and are easy on the environment.



Stockmar makes wonderful Crayons, Block Crayons, Modeling Wax and other natural art supplies. We recently gave our children these items. They love the crayons. They are strong and don't break like traditional crayons do. The Block Crayons are a hit for shading backgrounds on my daughters beautiful works of art. And I have to admit that the Modeling Beeswax is pretty addicting, I just can't put it down. The best part about the Beeswax is that it will never dry out like play-doh or clay does. You can leave the beeswax sitting out and pick it up at any time and it is ready to play with again. It also doesn't end up in tiny pieces in your carpet like other modeling clays. Beeswax is truly the way to go.


These products are a must have for any Waldorf Inspired Home School or anyone wanting to let their children play with the finest natural art supplies.
