This is what we did all afternoon to make valentines for Jefferson's classmates. The boys had a ton of fun destroying the crayons - surprising. 
We sorted them by color, or at least tried... purple, black, and blue sure do look a lot alike without labels. 
Then we stuffed them into a mini muffin tin. I think they would have been cuter in my candy molds, but I was worried the molds would melt. 
We put them in the oven at 250 for 10 minutes until they melted into one colorful crayon. We all had our faces at the oven watching the crayons melt. The boys were pretty pleased with their creation. 
I am just hoping the none of the kids at Jefferson's school think they're candy and try to eat them.
