New Crayons from Old Crayons

Evan really likes unwrapping and breaking new crayons.  Typically, that means that we have a big bag of crayon pieces that don't really get used...until now!  We had a yucky raining morning this week, so we broke out the bag of crayon pieces.  I put E to work unwrapping the lucky ones that still had the paper one them, and I helped break them into smaller pieces.  Evan loaded up a mini muffin pan with the bits and pieces of crayons.

we popped them into the oven, and e monitored the melting process

once they were completely cooled, we had some brand new, uniquely colored crayons!  i thought they would be good for grace since they were chunky, but since she is working on cutting 6 new teeth, she just kept trying to make it a crayon teether.
