1. Shavings. If you shave different colored crayons, then you'll have a fun confetti to glue onto a picture.
2. Decorations. Just melt them into a mold, and you'll have some inexpensive figurines to place on those lower shelves that children can reach.
3. Stress relief. Upset? Just snap an old crayon in half.
4. Editing. Need to mark some changes to your paper, but can't find your highlighter? Just pull out a box of crayons.
5. Entertainment. Tired of twiddling thumbs? Simply set up two opposing crayon armies, and have your two favorite colors duel to see which side wins. Once you know who lost, you can knock the defeated army down.
6. Coloring. Crayons are quite fun to color with. Try them out with your paper on different surfaces!
7. Building materials. Simply cut notches at both ends of the crayon, then begin stacking them together to build a log cabin.
8. Decision maker. Can't decide between multiple things? Then try playing spin the crayon.
9. Amusement. If you need a laugh, then grab a handful of crayons and look at the color names. Now try to use all of the names in a sentence.
10. Lesson teacher. When children are coloring together, crayons can help them learn how to share.
