Wax Crayon Etching
Instructions for an easy etching activity using wax crayon.
Make a wax crayon picture
You will need
small page for each child (about 1/4 page)
coloured wax crayons
black wax crayons
one or more sharp utensils such as:
fork
knitting needle
serrated plastic knife
toothpicks
twigs
scissors
SPECIAL NOTES
1. Ensure that there are enough black crayons as they will be used a lot.
2. Give warnings and supervise the children properly when they work with the sharp utensils to do the etching.
3. Give each child only a small size page as it is a big task to color the whole page black.
Method
1.Cover the whole page with a variety of coloured wax crayons, but not black.
2. Do not leave any parts of the page white.
3. Use the black wax crayon to colour over the whole page.
4. Use a sharp object to scratch a pattern or a picture into the black layer, revealing the colours underneath.
