Crayon Rocks will produce rich, oil
pastel-like pieces of art work that
kids can be proud of.  But to
achieve a look that is truly
beautiful you have to know how to
use the crayons in the most
effective way.
First, encourage children to use the
flat sides of the crayon instead of
the tip to get broad swaths of
color on the paper.  





Then tell them to cover up ALL the
white paper.  ALL of IT!  That's not
hard with Crayon Rocks.

Ask them to put some
muscle behind the
crayon.  Really press
down on it.  AND, don't
be afraid to layer
colors.  If you don't like
what you've done,
chances are you can
scrape it off or erase it
off.  Last, give it a quick
buff with a tissue or the
palm of your hand.  
The surface will shine
up like it's been
waxed.... :^) which, of
course, it has!
And it helps if you start with a strong drawing before trying to fill in the
colors.  Outline with a marker or pointy crayon last.  This can add definition
and cover any stray marks you don't like.  Simple shapes, cleanly done
make for the most satisfying pictures.            Happy Coloring Kids!
