The best part (for me) was learning how the crayons and markers are made. I love learning the science behind things. I couldn't get them to tell me what they use in Color Wonder markers though. Non-toxic, odor and colorless, and it oxidizes. If you have any guesses, let me know!
150 degree wax pours down like a river over this metal mold and fills the 100s of crayon shaped holes. Then cool water is pumped through the mold to harden the crayons quickly.
This is the machine that wraps the crayons with the paper.
Serving Macaroni and Cheese to Maya. That is one of the most recent colors named by a 5 yr old little girl during a Crayola contest.
In this room they give you each a pack of white clay to play with.
Check out the sting ray!
I drew Starry Starry Night (or something like that) on the ground in the sidewalk chalk area. 
This place is pretty cool if your an artist.
These are wells of melted crayon wax that you could dip into and paint on a piece of paper.
More wells...
The crew.

It's a great winter or rainy day activity. Check it out sometime!
