What you need:
- Pieces of broken crayons (break new ones if you don’t have old ones)
- Silicone molds (heat safe)
- Or A muffin tin lined with cupcake liners
What to do:

Bake:
- Heat oven at 200 – 250 Degrees.
- Place muffin tin or silicone molds with crayons in the oven.
- Crayons will slowly melt as they are heated.
- Remove pan or molds from heat and allow the crayons to firm up again.
- Once they’re cool, take them out of their molds.
How cute are they? We even added glitter to a couple of them to see how they would turn out.
The children can try to color with these crayons or they you can display them in a clear jar.
