Toy Tip: Find those crayons!
If it’s starting to warm up where you live, as it is here, now is the time to find those crayons! Which crayons, you ask? The ones you’ve kept in the car/minivan/chariot to keep the kids entertained while running errands or taking trips. The ones that the kids have managed to hide/lose in every nook, cranny, pocket and seat in your vehicle. The ones that will make a beautiful new car mural should you choose to ignore rather than heed my advice and put this task off for another day until you’ve actually forgotten and it hits 90 degrees (F) and you’re just about to get in the car for a ride and you think “hmmm…what’s that waxy smell?” at the same time that you spot a green/red/blue/yellow ooze dripping down the wall of your car.
What’s that? There are no crayons left lying around in the crevices of your car? Oh…well, then….nevermind….

yes, this is the time of year to switch over to colored pencils/markers in the purse or glove compartment. Yikes. I can’t imagine the mess we could be dealing with.

Char: Colored pencils and markers! Great idea. Gotta find all the loose gummies, too. I’m sure they could do some damage as well. :D
