Crayola Bathtub Markers
Crayola bathtub markers are fairly self-explanatory. Such markers are specifically designed to provide entertainment for young children in the tub. Using these products, your child can draw anything that comes to mind on the tile walls or body of the tub. Crayola bathtub markers can be especially useful if your child is somewhat resistant to bath time.
Washable Markers
"Washable marker" is a very broad category, with thousands of different products and brands, including Crayola. However, the common denominator is that these markers can be easily washed from skin, walls or clothing with water. This is especially advantageous for young children who have a tendency to draw on anything but paper.
Safety
Obviously, both products are meant for doodling, drawing or coloring. However, there is a much more important similarity between Crayola bathtub markers and generic washable markers, especially for concerned parents. Crayola's bathtub markers and products have all been approved by dermatologists and pediatricians. Washable markers are also nontoxic, according to their Material Safety Data Sheets.
Target Audience
Although both products are washable, there are notable differences. Crayola bathtub markers are fairly limited in their use, while washable markers can be applied to a variety of coloring crafts. Also, while bathtub markers are clearly geared for toddlers and young children, washable markers are appropriate for essentially any age group. Even as an adult, you might get marker on the table or your shirt while making a craft or coloring with your kids.
