Wax Crayons: Classic Crayons for Every Primary Classroom

Wax crayons are the everyday art material of Irish primary school infant and junior classes - used daily for colouring, drawing, and art lessons across the full primary curriculum. Our wax crayon range includes World of Colour wax crayons in boxes of 16 and 24, Maped Color'Peps triangular wax crayons, Maped Color'Peps wax jumbo crayons, Maped Jungle Fever wax jumbo crayons, and World of Colour boxes of 64 crayons with sharpener for classrooms that prefer crayons students can keep sharp throughout the term. Wax crayons are the most affordable crayon format, making them practical for booklist buying and for classrooms that go through crayons at pace.

Twisties Crayons: Twistable Crayons from World of Colour

Twisties crayons - the popular twistable crayon format from World of Colour - are a classroom and home-use favourite because they don't need sharpening and don't break in the way wax crayons often do. Our Twisties range includes World of Colour Twisties crayons in packs of 8, 12, and 24, World of Colour Mini Twisties in 12 and 24-packs (compact size for smaller hands), World of Colour Twisties Critters crayons (themed novelty packs of 10), and World of Colour Twisties Chunk crayons (larger-barrel format, packs of 10). Students twist the base to extend the crayon as it wears down - practical for classrooms wanting a longer-lasting, mess-free crayon format.

Chunky Crayons & Jumbo Crayons for Junior Infants & Preschool

Younger children - junior infants, preschool pupils, and Naíonraí students - benefit from thicker-barrel crayons designed for developing fine motor skills. Our chunky and jumbo crayon range includes World of Colour Super Jumbo Chubbies in packs of 8 and 12, World of Colour Super Chubbies in tubs of 24, World of Colour Young Hands Big Crayons in boxes of 12, World of Colour Hand Grip egg-shaped crayons (designed for toddler grip), Crayola Easy-Grip Jumbo Crayons in tubs of 24, and Scola Chubbi Stumps Chublets in packs of 40. These larger, easier-to-hold crayon formats are widely used in Early Start Units, Naíonraí, preschool art corners, and primary school SEN teaching - reducing hand fatigue and supporting correct early pencil grip development.

Triangular Crayons for Correct Grip Development

Triangular crayons encourage correct three-finger pencil grip from the earliest stages of mark-making - a practical detail for junior infants classrooms, Naíonraí, and home educators working on fine motor skill development. Our triangular crayon range includes Bic Kids Box of 144 Triangular Crayons (a class-sized box), Maped Color'Peps Triangular Wax Crayons, Ormond Class Collection 144 Triangular Grip Crayons, and Crafti's Kids Triangle Crayons in packs of 200. Occupational therapists and SEN teachers frequently recommend triangular crayons for students who need structured grip support.

Bulk Crayons for Whole-Class & Whole-School Orders

Irish primary schools running classroom art programmes, SET rooms supporting multiple year groups, and Naíonraí / preschools serving whole rooms of children can take advantage of HuntOffice's bulk crayon class packs - Bic Kids Box of 288 Crayons, Bic Kids Box of 144 Triangular Crayons, Ormond Class Collection boxes of 288 round-grip and 144 triangular-grip crayons, Scola Chubbi Stumps Chublets in packs of 40, and Crafti's round and triangle crayons in packs of 200. These larger pack sizes are priced as class collections rather than retail multi-packs, making them practical for schools stocking art cupboards, art rooms, and multiple classrooms from a single back-to-school order. Account facilities are available for schools raising purchase orders against art supplies or classroom resource budgets.

Washable Crayons & Skin Tone Crayons for Inclusive Classrooms

Our speciality crayon range supports specific classroom needs beyond standard colouring. World of Colour washable crayons (boxes of 12) are formulated to wash out of clothing and skin - practical for preschool and infant classrooms where spills and marks are inevitable. World of Colour skin tone crayons (packs of 24) support inclusive portraiture, self-portrait work, and identity projects in primary classrooms - a practical resource for schools building diverse art supplies into junior primary lessons.

Bic Kids & Maped Color'Peps: Trusted School Crayon Brands

Bic Kids Plastidecor crayons are one of the most recognised primary school crayon brands in Ireland - sharpenable, long-lasting, and stocked in packs of 24, boxes of 144 triangular, and boxes of 288 for class and whole-school use. Maped Color'Peps crayons cover jumbo, twistable, and triangular formats from the same range that supplies Maped's school-standard colouring pencils and markers. Both brands are widely used on Irish primary school booklists and in classroom art supplies.
