At one time I saw a recipe for bath crayons that kids could write on the walls of the tub and on themselves with. Can anyone help me with this again? Sorry if this is not the right area for this question or topic. Thank you in advance.

I've used ice molds from my local wall mart. They are used to make thin rounds of ice for water bottles.

Thanks soapbuddy I'll remember that for the mold. Is there a certain recipe to make them though?

I have never made soap crayons and there are a lot of recipes online if you google it but the amount of coloring really differs for each, some said 12 drops and when tested on a blog, that didn't color the tub at all. This tester then used 50 drops to reach the effect she wanted. Basically, 2 cups soap flakes (like Ivory snow) to 1/2 cup hot water and 50 drops of food coloring. She added the coloring to the water and mixed it well into the soap flakes with her hand, in gloves of course. The mixture needs to be really thick, but isn't smooth this way. Then squish into your molds. Some people also used titanium dioxide to make a more opaque color or pastel colors and some finely shred bar soap.

I agree melt and pour would be easier and smoother and it looks like you would just have to experiment with the type (food coloring, liquid lab colors) and amount of coloring you need to get a good result for writing on the tub.

Hope that helps a bit. Let us know if you figure out a good recipe.

Hi Dragoness,

Did you end up doing these crayons? How did it go? I have a few friends with kids' birthdays coming up in Spring and I thought this might be a fun gift!

I tried it once with mp but didn't have the right amount of coloring so they didn't write but they did work. I need to buy some more supplies to try again.
