Article: [eal-bilingual] Multicultural crayons?

I found this:

"Crayola have started selling their multicultural crayons, markers  and
paints in the U.K. They have been available in the U.S. since 1992  and have
just made their way to our shores."

" At present the multicultural crayons, markers and paints are only
available  to education outlets so they might be a bit difficult to get hold
of.  Try asking your child's teacher if they can order some for you or
contact  Crayola for more information by emailing consumers at vividimag.co.uk
or  call 01702 208170."

Hope this helps,
