Fun Craft

Okay - so I just saw this on AOL news, and it looks like a really fun craft. It's a great way to utilize broken or small pieces of crayons to make big ones.

That is the web address that takes you to the whole page, but all you do is break up the crayons into small pieces (after removing the paper, of course), sort by colors, place in a muffin pan (maybe a heart shaped one as is shown), and then cook for about 10 minutes in the oven at 200 degrees. Let them cool for about 10 minutes, remove, and you have new crayons. :-)

I thought it was a great idea, and a fun idea because you can get larger crayons with fun shapes.

We've done this before. It is kinda fun. Once was enough for me, though. :)
