: I am sure I am not the only mother with a million broken crayons laying around, well this last christmas season I decided to do something about it, I took all the old broken crayons, seperated them into common colors(ie, reds,greens,ect.)and melted them in a double boiler, then I poured the melted crayons into my christmas jello-jiggler molds,once they harden,you plop them out of the molds, and TA-DA!!!! new crayons in fun shapes. Like I said I did this with my christmas jello-jiggler molds, but any kind of mold would work, and the kids have fun peeling the paper off and breaking the crayons into even smaller peices.
