Have Old Broken Crayons?

If you are like most parents or child care providers, you have TONS of broken crayons all over the place. Most of them are broken into such small pieces that you can't use them anymore. Well, don't throw them away, put them into a plastic bag and store for a rainy day.

Make Your Own Holiday Crayons

Supplies:
old broken crayons (take off all paper)
plastic candy molds


Simply melt the broken crayons in the microwave stirring often so you don't burn them. Pour them into the candy molds and let dry. Pop them out and you have your very own fancy schmancy crayons in all kinds of shapes and sizes. You can even mix and match colors. Fill the bottome with one color, allow to dry fully and then add more colors.

These are great as party favors or just a great way to give new life to old broken crayons.
