In 1903 the first box of 8 Crayola crayons went on sale. You can now buy a box that has 120 colors in it. Heres the challenge...If you could only draw with 3 colors, what 3 colors would you choose? They don't have to be primary colors, but only 3? If you need help, check out the website below to study the colors.

Only 3, huh? I always have at least one of those 120-crayon boxes on hand. You just never know when you'll need some color.

If I have to choose:

Copper
Blue Green
Eggplant

Thanks for asking!

Well it would have to be:

Red
Blue
Yellow

BECAUSE...then I could make purple and orange and green and probably some others if I figured out the shading just right.

Sometimes you have to think outside the crayon box!
