Recycled Crayons

Another snow day here so it meant another craft for the princess and I. So, we tackled her art supplies and took out all of the broken crayons to recycle them into new swirly crayons.

Break up crayons and put them in a muffin tin (our mini one was perfect for this)

Bake at 275 degrees for 5 minutes

Take a tooth pick to swirl to the colors (not too much or it will all turn one color)

Pop it in the freezer to cool and they will pop right out.

Surprisingly not as messy as you would expect and a totally free and quick craft for you to do with your kiddos.
