Have a bunch of broken crayons in the house? We did! I just did this project with Brandon for Valentine’s Day and he really liked it. You will need to do a little prep beforehand. 
Children’s Craft
What you’ll need:
• Old Crayons
• Wax paper
• Black Marker
• Iron and Ironing board
• Scissors
• Hole puncher
I grated the old and broken crayons and place the colors in different ziploc bags. Take a large sheet of wax paper and fold it in half. The kids can add colors to one side making whatever design they want. Don’t be too liberal. A little bit goes a long way. Fold the other half of the wax paper over the crayon bits. Cover with a sheet of newspaper and iron on low heat (do not slide iron, only press to melt crayons). After melting the wax, I traced a heart and Brandon (getting really good at his scissor skills) cut it out. I punched a hole and tied on a piece of yarn to hang from the window. Brandon and Nathan really liked the end result.
• Also good for different seasons and holidays (pumpkins, flowers, stars) or maybe ornaments for the tree.
Enjoy! Anastasia
