Recycle your crayons

A CRAYON MAKE-OVER

Kulinary Kids has a great way to recycle all of those rejected crayons. This project is SO so easy to do and great fun for your kids. All you really need is a mini-muffin tin (or other shaped tin pan). Here’s how to do it…

Step 1: Peel paper labels off crayons, break up crayons into small pieces and distribute into muffin tin (filling cup to the top). Then place in 180° oven.

Step 2: Melt — for around 15 minutes

Step 3: Let muffin tin cool for about 25 minutes. Then place tin in your refrigerator or freezer for about 5-10 minutes. If you place in the refrigerator/freezer before cooled — the muffins may crack from the extreme temp.
