It's really too bad that I don't have a digital camera. Today my baby got the tip of a blue washable crayon. They are washable because they disintegrate on contact with water. (Never ever let one get mixed up with your hot wash) [Angst]

She essentially transformed herself into a smurf before my older child alerted me.

I think they mix 3 parts crayon and one part colored soap to make the things. I'm just hoping to impart a little practical knowledge to the future parents out there.

pooka, is this the youngest child that did this? Having just met your family, I'm trying to picture her as a smurf. [Big Grin]

Hey at least it wasn't a permanent marker. [Smile]

I love smurfs. I like washable markers, but I'm kind of honked off about that new crayon that only works on the special paper. It's like saying there's no hope of teaching your children proper crayon use.

It was the only thing I ever drew in third grade. I have no idea why, now.

We want pictures of the smurf!
