Looking to brighten up your window or simply use up those old and broken crayons you have lying around? This quick and easy project requires very few materials and is a blast to make!
Materials: crayons, towel, wax paper, pencil sharpener, iron, permanent marker, scissors, tape
- Peel the wrapper off of the crayons *Children can do this independently
- Lay one sheet of wax paper on top of the towel to catch any shavings or spill over from ironing
- Sharpen the crayons over the wax paper so that the shavings land on top of it *Children should turn the crayons on their own with adult supervision
- Add a second piece of wax paper (same size) on top of the shavings
- Iron on top of the second piece of wax paper until the two pieces are melted together (the crayons melt quickly!) *ADULTS ONLY
- Trace or draw petals, circles and rectangular stems with permanent marker *Children can trace independently and should identify the shapes being made
- Cut out the pieces *Children can cut on their own with supervision
- Tape together your flower on your window or door
.
- Enjoy!
