Homemade Bathtub Crayons

It has been an really cold winter here in Texas and the snow continues to fall on the first day of Spring. So why not make some homemade bathtub crayons to pass the time. It is easy and fun.

Here is what you will need:
  • 2 cups of ivory snow powder
  • food coloring
  • 1/4 cup of water
  • ice cube tray
In a large bowl, combine the water and ivory soap, add food color until you reach the desired color. Blend well. Add more water if needed. Fill the ice tray with the soap mixture. You may want to use a knife to spread the mixture out. Leave to dry until hardened. Remove the crayons from the tray. Kids can color on the tub, or on themselves during bath time! For a little more fun you can add a few drops of food color to the bath water. We love blue to make the ocean.
