Color Redo

Ever wonder what to do with broken crayons that your adorable child refuses to use because it doesn’t have a “pointy” end anymore?

You can send them to the National Crayon Recycle Program. They will melt the crayons down and form them into new ones. But leave the wrappers on them because, “When you have black, blue and purple crayons together without wrappers, it’s hard to tell them apart,” said the program director, LuAnn Foty. What a great job - bet she colored a lot when she was little. Her website is www.crazycrayons.com.
