An amazing friend gave me a great book Small fry play (Susie Cameron & Katrina Crook, Written by Sue Cant). It has a recipe for soap crayons - I thought I would give it a crack.
1 cup of soap flakes to 1 tablespoon hot water (I grated my own!)
Mix until paste like add food dye
put it in a mould for 2 days.
can be used as soap or a crayon - Lumpy colours in the tiles in the bath room. She then also uses a washer to erase it!
I really enjoyed making them. The more time that passes the more "set" the crayons become.

| 1 cup of soap flakes |

| a chunky paste (i got impatient!) |

| In the mould ready to set. |

| not too bright but visable |

Give it a go! they really are quick to make and make bath time fun and easy - plus your tiles get cleaned!
