Correct answer: Flesh

I love US made ..... but really hate china made.

The Crayola company made a wise business decision by showing consideration of the many different and beautiful skin tones of the children and adults that purchase and use their product . Whether it be light or dark, I think all skin shades are beautiful

N00bPixie56523, I remember the super jumbo box with, what, 64? Never had one. Too expensive.

I had to go look up the color cerulean--deep sky blue

WaldoLydeker, my husband bought me a box for Christmas one year because I always wanted them but couldn't afford them❤💕

happydoghappycat, agreed! it was always a bad decision to call one color "flesh"!

I like to draw and I used to have the jumbo box of crayons. loved to just look at the different colors. it even came with a sharpener. I used it them a lot and came up with some weird looking prin5s.
Celadon
Another color question: What color is my user name? (Hint-- it's also the name of a shade of Korean pottery.)

WaldoLydeker, never had the 64 as a kid either for the same reason. Bought one as an adult, tho.

happydoghappycat, I love that they came out with a pack of colored pencils that are different skin tones

Threat Level Midnight, I don't remember the sharpener working that well, but it was a great gimmick.

WaldoLydeker, was that the one with the sharpener thingy on the outside of the box?

When we were about 6 and 7, my brother and I renamed Burnt Sienna as "Doo Doo"!😁

I commonly refer to certain colors using the names of crayons from the boxes!

WaldoLydeker, was that the one with the little sharpener in the side?

Player #2085402, Not everyone's "flesh" is "peach" colored. Once everything's "PC" you can't go back...
