5.0 out of 5 stars Great Quality Chalk - Nice Assortment

We bought chalkboard paint and painted it on a glass window. It took a couple coats but after the 3rd one, it was ready to go.She asked if I would buy her some chalk on Bolo after the chalk she bought (some cheap brand) did not write on her board cleanly/evenly. Having been out of school for a long time (I haven't seen chalk since college), I didn't know there was such thing as "quality chalk" or "low dust chalk". I thought chalk was chalk!After reading several reviews on various products, I finally settled for Prang Hygieia. According to other reviewers who seem to know more than me, Prang is one of the "best" chalk brands. Wanting to learn more, I found this from a 3rd party website (Bolo does not let you link externally).**HYGIEIA CHALK Hygieia is made of 95% pure calcium carbonate. This high percentage of pure levigated or refined chalk means it is virtually free of grit, greasy binders, or other ingredients harmful to board surfaces. This high quality produces a clean, white mark, easily legible anywhere in the classroom. It erases easily (the heavier particles settle in the chalk tray and significantly cut down on dust). Hygieia outlasts ordinary chalk, and actually preserves chalkboard surfaces by keeping the "tooth" of the board in perfect writing condition.**I'm not a geologist, so I have no clue what calcium carbonate does vs whatever traditional chalk is made of but this chalk truly is magical. It writes smoothly/evenly/clearly (even on chalkboard paint surfaces). There doesn't seem to be much dust at all and it erases nicely.My only complaint is that some of the chalk arrived in broken pieces but I'm not docking stars for that. Out of all 12 sticks, only 2 of mine were broken. Bottom line, chalk is fragile. Whether you buy it from Bolo or you buy it at your local store like Walmart. All of it comes from the same place and it is stored in warehouses. The slightest drop/bump/hit will break your chalk. If you get a pack with all of them in one piece, then consider yourself lucky. But there is no reason to dock stars just because your chalk is broken. That's like docking stars from a Butterfinger or Heath candy bar that isn't in one piece.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great value!!!
Yes they break easy. But my granddaughter has had days and weeks of fun! Soooo worth it!!!!
4.0 out of 5 stars Good quality chalk
The chalk itself is dustless and very pigmented compared to similar brands. However some came broken and I can imagine with slight pressure while using it will break easily. For the price and quality of the chalk it is worth the buy.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great value for the price
Im impressed with the quality of Prang products. I'm very pleased with Prang board chalk the colors are vibrant and I use them on paper like soft pastels. I have a name brand chalk I've been using but these are far better they are more vibrant and there's hardly any dust. They didn't survive shipping many were boken but that's fine I would do that anyway. I will buy again
1.0 out of 5 stars Broken pieces of colorful chalk 😟
Why did you pick this product vs others?:This colored chalk arrived in a box of items I ordered. It looked perfectly fine but upon opening the small box I found most of the chalk was busted into tiny pieces. Very disappointing. I only paid 1.49 for two boxes and did not go through the trouble of trying to repack, print a table and take somewhere to send it back. Upon saying this I would save myself money and not purchase this product.
3.0 out of 5 stars Decent Chalk for Casual Use
3.0 out of 5 stars - Decent Chalk for Casual UseI've been using the Prang Board Chalk for my nephew's art projects and outdoor games. The assorted colors are fun and vibrant, and the kids enjoy using them to create on the sidewalk and driveway. The chalk itself is decent quality, but I've noticed that it can be a bit brittle and prone to breaking.The colors are generally bright and consistent, although some pieces can be a bit more vibrant than others. The chalk works well on pavement and concrete, but it doesn't perform as well on rough or porous surfaces.One thing I've noticed is that the chalk can be a bit dusty, which can be a problem for kids who are sensitive to messes. However, it's easy to clean up with a damp cloth or hose.Overall, the Prang Board Chalk is suitable for casual use, but it may not be the best choice for heavy-duty or professional applications. For the price, I expected a bit more durability and consistency. However, for the occasional art project or game of hopscotch, this chalk will do the job. If you're looking for a budget-friendly option for kids' activities, this might be worth considering. Just be aware of the potential drawbacks, and you'll be fine.
5.0 out of 5 stars Broken in shipment twice….
Chalk is great, but came broken in pieces….all 8 boxes. I got a replacement order, same! Not wrapped tightly in box again and all pieces broken. Now waiting on the 3rd replacement shipping.

Decent chalk
I was impressed by the writing quality of this chalk. Not the same standard as Hagoromo but better than anything I can easily buy in Australia.

Bien dans l’ensemble
Pour ce prix, c’est parfait ! Hormis le fait que ça arrive en morceaux (cassés) probablement à cause du moyen de livraison.
