Honeysticks Super Jumbos

Honeysticks Super Jumbos (12-Pack)

The Natural Next Step in Creative Growth.

Elevate your child’s artistic journey with Honeysticks Super Jumbos. As your little one transitions from the first palm-grasp scribbles to more refined control, these crayons provide the perfect bridge. Longer and thicker than our Originals, the Super Jumbos are specifically engineered to support a developing pencil grasp. Handcrafted with the same commitment to "no nasties," they offer a premium, worry-free way for children to express their growing imagination.

Why You’ll Love It

Supports Developing Grasp: Designed to be 10cm long and 2cm thick, these crayons encourage children to transition toward a mature pencil hold, providing the extra control needed for more detailed drawings.

Toxic-Free & Food-Grade: We skip the paraffin wax and cheap fillers found in conventional brands. Each crayon is handmade using 100% pure New Zealand beeswax and food-grade pigments for color.

Durable & Clean: While they are easy for small hands to hold, they are notoriously difficult to break. Each crayon comes wrapped to keep hands clean while your child explores their 12 vibrant colors.

Delightful Beeswax Scent: Say goodbye to that sharp, chemical crayon smell. Honeysticks carry the soft, natural aroma of the hive, creating a calming and pleasant sensory experience.

Ethically Handcrafted: Lovingly made in Aotearoa, New Zealand, by a family-owned business dedicated to sustainable practices and child safety.

Health & Developmental Benefits

Fine Motor Milestone Support: The specific dimensions of the Super Jumbo are backed by early childhood development principles, helping to strengthen the muscles in the fingers and hands required for future writing.

Safe for Sensitive Systems: By using food-grade ingredients, we ensure that playtime is free from petroleum byproducts and synthetic additives, making them safe for children who may still occasionally explore the world with their mouths.

Sensory Engagement: The smooth "glide" of beeswax on paper provides immediate visual feedback, boosting a child’s confidence and encouraging longer periods of focused, creative play.

The Honeysticks Mission

Honeysticks was founded in a New Zealand preschool to solve a simple problem: art supplies should be safe enough to eat (though we don't recommend it!). Our mission is to provide parents with Pure Safety and Pure Play. We partner with local beekeepers to use natural beeswax—a sustainable byproduct—transforming it into high-quality, non-toxic tools. We are committed to a future without virgin plastics, ensuring that the world our children inherit is as clean as the crayons they use.

How to Use & Creative Ideas

Developing the Grasp: Encourage your child to "pinch" the crayon further down the barrel to help them discover the control needed for drawing shapes and lines.

Layered Art: Because our food-grade colors bond easily to paper, poster, or artboard, your child can layer different shades to explore color blending and depth.

Outdoor Art: Take the Super Jumbos outside! Their durable nature makes them great for coloring on textured surfaces like wood or thick cardboard.

The Transition: Once your child has mastered the Super Jumbos, they’ll be ready for our thinner range, having built the foundational hand strength necessary for school.
