  Question
  Are Crayola and Silly Putty products nontoxic even if ingested?
  Answer
 

The Crayola brand has been a trusted name in homes and schools for over 100 years. Our products are safe and nontoxic and have been since 1903 when we first began offering crayons.

All Crayola and Silly Putty products are certified nontoxic by an independent toxicologist and carry the Art and Creative Materials Institute's (ACMI) APPROVED PRODUCT (AP) seal. This seal provides assurance to consumers that the product meets or exceeds specific quality standards and contains no known toxic substances in sufficient quantities to be harmful to the human body, even if ingested or inhaled. If needed, your physician may contact the local poison control center for assistance in obtaining product ingredient information.

It is possible for an individual to have a sensitivity to a particular ingredient, just as one could have a sensitivity to a certain food. All Crayola products are tested against common allergens to identify any possible sensitivities.
