I always thought making bath crayons that worked where a lot of work and honestly I always skipped over trying. Well finally I tried this simple recipe my daughter actually found on a tv show. The crayons came out nice and worked!
So here it is~
First grate a bar of soap into a bowl, then mix some hot water and stir. (I used one bar of soap and little less then half cup of water)
Keep mixing till a dough forms.(this is when you add some food coloring, gel works amazing) No worries if your dough is not firm.
Once mixed place into molds. (we used a cookie tin but I would suggest maybe packing some play doh cutters...it would just be easier to take them out)
Then place in a freezer for few hours.
Ours were in for about 3 hours and could have used another hour but my kids were to excited to wait.Once frozen take out and they are ready to use!
note~ ours did not stain but test your surface first if you are worried.
