Do you know what you're looking at? No, it's not candy; it's crayons! Even better, it's beautiful, new crayons you can make from your old, broken crayons. Magic!
Instructables, one of our favorite websites, has an easy 10-step guide (with photos) to turning your old crayons into supercute new art supplies — and great gifts for baby showers and kids' goodie bags!
Learn how to remake your crayons. According to the creator, Instructables member SomArtMama, making these crayons is easy, yet a bit time-consuming, and all you need are wax crayons, aluminum cans, wooden sticks, a large pan and candy molds (which is how you get these great shapes).
Note: Be sure to keep these crayons away from younger children, who may be tempted to eat them. Honestly, I'm a bit tempted to take a nibble myelf.

Hi . It is a brilliant idea for kids to play with colors. Learn to mix and match too. This can contribute and widen their knowledge about colors and can be applied to their clothing, accessories, makeup, house interior etc.... Great article
