Educational Chemistry Crayons: “Hey Mom, Pass the Barium Nitrate Flame”

Educational Chemistry Crayons: "Hey Mom, Pass the Barium Nitrate Flame" At least that's what the creator of this product hopes your child will say when they get these crayons, which are labeled with the actual chemical used to give each colored wax stick its hue.

If the information sticks, your kid should have an edge up in high school chemistry... and possibly a little confusion in kindergarten when the other kids ask for "Jungle Green." [Etsy via Laughing Squid]
