funky chunky crayons
If you have pre-schoolers, you have crayons. Lots of them. What do you do with all the left-over bits and pieces of crayons without throwing them out? Repurpose those crayons by making your own. Super easy and a fun activity do to with your kids. Just take the crayon scraps in a variety of colors and remove all the labels. Grab a muffin pan and place a handful of crayon bits in each cup. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and place the pan inside the oven for about 4 to 5 minutes until the crayon scraps are mostly liquid but still have a few chunks in the center (helps prevent burning). Remove from oven, cool for about 30 minutes then place in the freezer for another 30 minutes to cool completely. Pop out of the pan and you are ready to doodle again!
