If the crayon he was sucking on was black there's not a lot of need to worry. Crayons are non-toxic but you need to brush his teeth and cleanse his mouth with a gentle children's toothpaste pretty quickly. His next bowel movement may contain traces of the crayon or paper, but unless he ate a whole crayon there's no need to really worry. If he statrts feeling sick in teh next 2 or 3 days call your pediatrician.

All Crayola products are non-toxic. Just keep them away from him in the future.

They are non toxic he'll be fine. Wipe the inside of his mouth with a wet rag they are also washable!

Can you call your doctor? Also, is there a number on the box to call? Finally, can you call poison control in your area?

I think they make them non-toxic for this very reason. He should be fine.
