More Crayons!

We loved the "Day the Crayons Quit"  (want to see what we did for that project?) and we got very excited to find out there is a sequel!

For Literature class at coop - we had even more fun with crayons while we read our new favorite - "The Day the Crayons Came Home".

We made our own "postcards" and sent them off to friends :-)

For our project, we took all those crayons bits and melted them into Crayon cakes.   I used my silicon baking cups and we were able to pop them right out after they hardened and they had a great ridge too!

We used the microwave for our test ones, and they came out great.  The only problem is that we had to microwave them for around 10 minutes!  In the oven, we could do more in less time...
