When working as a nanny, I spent a great deal of time around crayons. I have come to believe that crayons have human counterparts that they reflect. There are many different types of crayons, just as there are many different types of people. Here are just a few examples of some crayon stereotypes:

The Attention-Seeker: This crayon just screams 'pick me!' It tries to be the brightest color in the box, keeps its wrapper tidy and its tip sharp, and sometimes even throws glitter into its mix to be more desirable. This crayon wants to be wanted, wants to be chosen, and will do whatever it takes to get the affirmation that it needs.

The Rebel: This crayon, while having the same goal as the attention seeker, goes about it differently. It will try to be the dullest, dirtiest crayon in the box in order to get someone to notice. It will dull down its color, sometimes even to black or grey, and will let its wrapper get ripped and torn as its point becomes duller and duller. I even saw one crayon try to don a single silver hoop earring, but honestly, that's taking things a bit too far.

The Conformist: This is the crayon that people think of when they say, “crayon”. It isn't bright and shiny all the time, but it isn't dull and sullen either. It does it's best to blend in with the rest of the crayons and only calls attention to itself when its color is needed. It is a background crayon, and usually content to be so…it probably says “Crayola” on its wrapper.

The Nudist: Watch out for this daring crayon! It decides to be naked for a variety of reasons, among them: "Wrappers are so constraining" and "I can connect better with the drawing this way." Other crayons are usually shocked and try to avoid this rule-breaker, and so nudist crayons generally migrate to a basket in a preschool classroom, where they are accepted in all their wrapper-less-ness.

The individual: On occasion, you may meet a crayon that is drawing to the beat of its own drum. This crayon usually has some strange color, like Puce or Garnet, or something attempting artistry, like “Whisper of Perfect Pink.” These crayons, though strange, are harmless, and, having their own different sort of style, can be a wonderful addition to your crayon box, should you ever happen to come across one.

The artist: The true artist crayon is rare, and if you ever see one, you will know it instantly. The moment you look upon an artist crayon, your mind will be full of pictures of all the things you could draw with this crayon. These are the crayon’s designs, and the artist crayon longs to have them realized, so if you have time and a little talent, please oblige by picking up the crayon and drawing one of the pictures that it projected out to you. It will make the crayon's day.
