[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 482902, member: 1233"] You can also make them yourself. Just get reg crayons and peel them. Break them into small pieces and put them into a cleaned out can from veggies or something. Put that inside a saucepan. Put water in the saucepan until it is 1/2 way up the can and keep over very low heat (I use boiling water so it is already hot when I pour it around the crayon can) until the crayones are melted. The crayons should never touch the water - the can makes a basic double boiler that you don't have to clean. Pour the liquid into candy molds or whatever you want and let it cool. You can also put the broken crayons nto muffin tins lined with 2-3 paper liners and put them in the oven to melt (300-350 degrees). Watch them carefully until they melt. Then take them out, let them cool and then take them out of the tin and peel the paper off. If you want them bigger than what is sold in the stores, look for an Occupational Therapist (OT) supply store or novelty shaped crayons at party supply stores. [/QUOTE]
