seeing green - colors

According to Crayola.com, if all the regular size Crayola crayons made in one year were laid end to end they would circle the Earth six times.  That’s a lot of crayons in the landfills!

Being green is about being aware

You don’t have to give up your favorite crayons to be green; you just need to use it and pass it on. 

Instead of throwing away your old crayons send them to Crazy Crayons, National Crayon Recycle Program.  The CRAYON RECYCLE PROGRAM takes unwanted, rejected and broken crayons and recycles them into fresh, new crayons!

Green Tips

• Bring your own crayons to the restaurant.
• Most kids will only use the tip of a crayon leaving the rest untouched. Melt down your old crayons and “reshape” them for use. 
• Donate your old crayons to your church preschool, daycare or doctor’s office.

**For alternative crayons try Stockmar Beeswax Crayons. The crayons contain only beeswax as a binding agent, and pure raw color materials.
