GOOD 'OL CRAYONS

The name "Crayola" was created by Alice Stead Binney, a 
former school teacher. She put together the French word 
"craie", which means "chalk", and "ola," from "oleaginous", 
which means "oily", and came up with "Crayola".

Back in 2000, Crayola developed an online poll to find out 
what crayon color was America's favorite, and the result 
was blue.

According to a Yale University study of American adults, 
the smell of Crayola crayons is ranked number 18 when it 
comes to the 20 most recognizable smells.
