How do you use Crayola Scribble Scrubbie?

Published in Children's Art Toy 3 mins read

Using Crayola Scribble Scrubbie is a fun, repeatable process centered around coloring adorable fuzzy pets with washable markers and then scrubbing them clean to start all over again. It's designed for kids to express their creativity and enjoy a cycle of art and cleaning.

The Basic Scribble Scrubbie Process

The core concept is simple:

  1. Color: Use the special washable markers to draw on the fuzzy pet.
  2. Scrub: Wash the pet clean using water and a scrub brush (often included in playsets).
  3. Repeat: Once dry, the pet is ready to be colored again!

This loop allows for endless creative possibilities and teaches a gentle cleaning action.

What's Typically Included?

Based on the reference and common sets like the "Scrub Tub Playset", a Scribble Scrubbie set usually includes:

  • Fuzzy Pets: Adorable animal figures with a special flocked (fuzzy) surface designed for coloring and washing. The reference specifically mentions:
    • Peach the cat
    • Scooter the dog
    • Clyde the bunny
    • Francesca the poodle
  • Washable Markers: A set of markers with ink specifically formulated to wash off the pets easily. The reference states six washable markers are included in the featured set.
  • Scrub Tub/Station: A small playset with a tub or station where you can place the pet for washing.
  • Scrub Brush: A small brush or tool used to help scrub the marker off the pet.

Step-by-Step Usage

Here's a breakdown of how to enjoy your Crayola Scribble Scrubbie pets:

Step 1: Let Creativity Flow (Coloring)

  • Choose one of your fuzzy pets, like Peach the cat or Scooter the dog.
  • Uncap one of the washable markers.
  • Draw, color, and doodle directly onto the fuzzy surface of the pet. You can use single colors, multiple colors, patterns, or designs. The washable ink is safe for the pets and designed to be removed later.

Step 2: Scrub-a-Dub-Dub (Cleaning)

  • Once you're done coloring or want to create a new design, it's time to clean your pet.
  • Place the pet in the scrub tub or cleaning station.
  • Use water (warm water often works best) and the included scrub brush.
  • Gently scrub the pet's fuzzy surface. The washable ink should start to lift and rinse away. You might need to rinse and scrub a few times for stubborn spots or bright colors.
  • Rinse the pet thoroughly under running water if needed to remove all marker residue and soap (if used, though often just water is enough).

Step 3: Dry and Redecorate (Repeat)

  • After scrubbing, gently shake or pat the pet dry with a towel.
  • Allow the pet to air dry completely.
  • Once dry, your Scribble Scrubbie pet is clean and ready for a whole new round of coloring and imaginative play!

This cycle of coloring and cleaning makes Crayola Scribble Scrubbie a reusable creative toy.
