RECYCLED CHUNKY CRAYONS

 

Recycle Old Crayons 

So you have an excuse to buy New ones 


  • 20-30 old crayons
  • metal muffin tin, any size
  • cooking spray

Direction:

 Get out your old crayons. Take off the paper (if it is still on). Kids love to help with this! Then break or chop them into smaller pieces about 1/2 – 1 inch pieces.

Spray your muffin tin with cooking spray and add some crayons into each spot. The more or less you put depends on what size you want for each chunky crayon.

Place the muffin tin full of crayons into a preheated oven of 275 degrees F. I used both mini muffin tins and large muffin tins. Watch them carefully, they will melt fast. Bake them for about 7-8 minutes. When they look melted enough, carefully and slowly remove them from the oven.

Let Cool- Pop out and Color with your Chunky Crayons .
