Crayola Experience Orlando is a hands-on family attraction at The Florida Mall where kids can create art, personalize crayons, experiment with color, and bring their creations to life through interactive activities. The entire experience is indoors, making it especially useful for families looking for something to do away from Orlando’s theme parks or during hot and rainy weather.
Rather than traditional rides, Crayola Experience is built around creative play, with activities such as personalized crayons, melted-wax art, Model Magic, digital experiences, and take-home creations.

Things to Do with Younger Kids
Crayola Experience is particularly well suited to families with younger children. Toddler Town has a smaller play structure designed for little kids, while Color Playground gives bigger kids room to climb and burn off some energy between creative activities.
What to Expect
The experience is self-guided, so families can move between activities at their own pace. A typical visit takes several hours, although popular stations can develop lines during busy periods.
General admission includes access to the main attractions and several take-home creations. Some premium activities and additional materials cost extra, so you may encounter optional purchases beyond admission.
Food & Breaks
Crayola Experience has food and snacks available inside the attraction. Because it’s located at The Florida Mall, families also have plenty of additional dining options nearby before or after their visit.
The Crayola Store
The Crayola Store carries art supplies, toys, apparel, souvenirs, and customizable assortments of Crayola colors. The store is open to the public, so attraction admission isn’t required to shop.
Accessibility & Sensory-Friendly Visits
Crayola Experience is designed to accommodate guests with disabilities, and strollers are permitted within posted size limits.
Sensory Sundays are offered on select dates throughout the year with adaptations such as lower lighting, reduced sound, and access to a quiet room. Check the current schedule if a sensory-friendly visit would be helpful for your family.
