Any tips for pairing it with other fonts?

Because Kids Crayon has so much personality, pair it with clean, simple sans-serifs. A basic font like Arial, Helvetica, or Montserrat in small caps works great for body text or supporting info. Avoid pairing it with other overly decorative fonts let it be the star.
