Today marks the first day back to school (at least for my oldest) so it only stands to reason that we make… crayons. You see, yesterday I spent the afternoon cleaning out the craft storage (note to self: stop buying construction paper) and purging toys that the kids have outgrown when I unearthed our Crayola Crayon Maker
. After you peel and break your crayons of choice, you load them up on a tray, the device melts them, then you pour it into the molds. There’s a lot of waiting involved, but Easton had a good time anyway… plus it’s always fun to see what new crayons you’ll come up with.
I love crayons! I did not know this was available. Great idea.
We got it for the kids as a Christmas gift – it seemed a little less messy than trying you own molds.
