Melting Crayons in the Sun

Today we melted crayons in the sun.  We took our broken, worn down crayons and put them in different shaped cookie cutters on a cookie sheet wrapped in aluminum foil.  The only thing we had to do after that was stick them in the sun.  The boys got a kick out of seeing them as they melted in the sun.

 Here is my oldest with a black letter V.

 He had a good time using it to color.
