3. Place the small crayon pieces in your silicone bunny mold. You can either keep like colors together or get creative by mixing the colors to make rainbow crayons. This is a fun step for kiddos to get involved with.

4. Bake your crayons in the oven for 10-15 minutes or until crayons are completely melted.

5. Take your silicone mold out of the oven very carefully to avoid spilling any melted wax. A grown up should complete this step.
