How to Turn Leftover Crayons Into an Exciting Melted Crayon Art

Give children a box of crayons to play with thru creative preschool activities and you will be amazed by the degree of artwork they can create. Toddler enthusiasm is dependent on how hand-friendly the art crayon will be because once it becomes small and hard to grasp, the trash bin is its most likely destination. However, recycling could transform the small and odd shaped leftover art material and turn it into a melted crayon art tool that toddlers can fully enjoy.

Recycling is the best option because certain types of crayons can easily be melted collectively to form into shapes and objects that appeal to toddlers. These certain types carry a unique and natural soybean oil formulation that does not include paraffin wax. It is entirely a blend of soybean oil and aggressive color pigments, which makes it much better than ordinary wax crayons as it is less flaky, smoother, and brighter. In addition, being organic in nature, it is highly recommended for toddlers in the conduct of various creative preschool activities since it is certified to be nontoxic.

Let the children enjoy playing with crayons and never dispose leftover materials. Rather, collect and turn it into a more inspiring melted crayon art form and in melting the collected small pieces, follow these simple steps.

Pick out among several baking utensils the one that is intended for muffins since that pan includes several molds.

Segregate the leftover crayons into colors and place all the blues into one mold, the reds in the other, the greens, the yellows, the blacks, the whites, and so on.

Thereafter, place the muffin mold into the oven. Turn it into low heat about 250 degrees F, and let it stay for at least 15 minutes or until the crayons have totally melted.

Use the cotton mitt. Pull out the muffin pan from the oven, and stir each mold thoroughly using toothpicks to mix oil and color pigment.

Let the pan cool off for another 20 to 30 minutes. Once the pan is cool and therefore easy to handle, turn it over so that the newly formed color disks or the new melted crayon art tool should pop-out and be ready for use.

The transformed color disks will now become a very interesting tool to inspire toddlers to work on related creative preschool activities with much gusto and enthusiasm.

Remember that a box of crayon supports intuitively any length of creative preschool activities, but it becomes more interesting if leftover materials are recycled and never thrown away by turning them into an effective melted crayon art tool.
