Crayons

This is a project the boys and I did a little while ago that turned out pretty neat, but I didn't post it before now!

We went through our big ziploc bag of crayons and sorted out all the broken ones. We took off any wrappers and sorted them by color into a muffin tin (with muffin wrappers in it). When we were ready we put it in the oven at about 200 and it didn't take long for them to melt down. We stirred the up and let them cool before unwrapping them and coloring with our "new" crayons! Bonus: our crayon bag doesn't have any more little crayon pieces!
