Some old crayons (or new ones if you don't mind sacrificing them...)
Wax Paper
Iron
Two dishtowels (they won't be ruined)
Cheese Grater
First you'll want to grate your crayons...try to pick bright colors. We used a lot of green and blue and when they were later melted together they turned kind of black. :( I think it would be best to stick with oranges and yellows...pinks and reds.
After you have the crayons grated you will want to tear off two pieces of wax paper. Turn your iron on. Place a dishtowel on your ironing board and then a piece of wax paper (the towel is just so that the wax won't stick to anything...hmmm...maybe this step isn't necessary? Do it anyway...) Let your child sprinkle bits of crayon onto the wax paper...
