One of our projects this morning was recycling all our little broken crayon bits into new block style crayons. It was a fun an easy craft and the kids really enjoyed using their ‘new’ crayons. I followed the basic directions provided on Martha Stewart’s site.

Basically you just peel all the crayons and break them up into pea sized chunks. (I used a butter knife on a cutting board to break some of them up).

Let the kids fill mini-cupcakes tins with their choice of colors.

Bake in a 200 degree oven for 15min – or until completely melted.

Cool on a rack.

Ours popped out without any issues.
