One Part Art, One Part Science
Constructed with durable blue plastic, the crayon maker looks like a little laboratory. Brightly colored decals feature science-experiment-themed scenes. The kit comes with four colored crayons (red, blue, yellow, and green), which you can break into pieces and mix together in the machine's melting trays.
A safety-latch lid locks in place to keep fingers away from hot surfaces during the melting process. The lid is clear so kids and adults can watch while the crayons melt in the metal trays--an almost hypnotic process.
Easy-to-Use Crayon Molds
When the crayons have melted and blended together, a yellow lever on the side of the crayon maker lets you tilt the tray to pour the melted crayons into the molds. When the crayons have hardened, the flexible plastic mold frame easily snaps open to reveal four newly formed crayons. Kids will be ready and excited to color with their new homemade crayons creations.
While the crayon maker is designed well for child safety, adult supervision is necessary.
Morph Photos into Cartoon Characters
Inside this specially marked crayon maker box, you'll find a promotional code to enter the Story Studio Play Zone at the Crayola Web site. At the Story Studio Play Zone you can transform a photo into a cartoon character and create, print, and color your own story. Simply upload a photo and use the automatic face editor to make your photograph into a colorful cartoon character.
You can also insert your character outline into a selected story that you can print and color. The stories range in theme from a baseball game to a haunted house to a pirate adventure.
What's in the Box
Crayola Crayon Maker with Story Studio, one crayon mold, eight Crayola crayons, two crayon holders, and instructions.
Crayola Crayon Maker can melt your favorite crayons down and re-form them into one-of-a-kind designer crayons. Simply place crayon bits into the melting tray, pour the melted wax into molds and let them harden into brand-new crayon combinations. The locking see-through dome lets you watch the process in complete safety -- from melting through molding. The melting tray is coated for easy clean-up. The dual-ended crayon holder eliminates the need for crayon wrappers. The Crayola Crayon Maker takes one clear 60-watt candelabra bulb.
