I love - love - Crayola. We use a lot of art supplies and I have found theirs to be of the best quality when it comes to children's art supplies. And their innovation is amazing. They are always coming up with new fun children's art and craft supplies. And their is full of awesome project ideas. And no. I am not getting paid for this. Recently. I e-mailed the company with reference to the recent toy recalls asking if any of their products are made in China. Here is the reply I received.

I like crayola - and when the crayons become stubby we melt them down in fun color combos in an old muffin tin (mini-size) in a low temp oven. expend not. Want not. --Susan in NH
Renae thanks for the suggestion. Soybean crayons sound alter. Mexico sketches me out though but not as much as China. Susan that is a great idea. I have heard that but never tried it. We undergo a Crayola draw maker that melts and molds pieces into new crayons. My mother bought it one year for Christmas. We save our crayons for that.
