Cleaning Crayon Marks Off The Walls
Avg. Visitors Review (4.7 Stars):

Although they are so little but they can make some big messes.  Walk away and leave behind just one forgotten crayon and your little toddler can make that one little crayon a creative work of art.  We may find this situation adorable if it was paper that our little one had used.

Unfortunately the paper must have run out and your toddler moved to the end table, coffee table, television, doors and walls.  Who would have known that one little crayon could have gone so far and done so much damage.

The time has come to clean it up and where do you start and what do you use?  Many cleaning solutions offer the strength to clean such a mess but could leave you disappointed and the mess remaining behind.  A simple and inexpensive cleaning solution is right in your own cabinet for just pennies unlike many disinfectants and cleaning solutions, which can be very expensive and less powerful. 

Try dampening a scrubbing rag with warm water and dip in baking soda.  Lightly rub the surface and remove the crayon marks with very little effort.  This is a very effortless and economical way of cleaning your little artist’s creation off of your furniture and walls without leaving a hint behind. 

With the unforeseen future of reoccurrences you can always be prepared.  Most kitchens have baking soda on hand, so when your little artist decides to become creative on your walls and furniture, make your clean up as easy as it possibly can.  The days of scrubbing till you’re tired and wore out are over; no more need to repaint walls because of unsuccessful attempts to remove crayon marks. 

What can be worse than the crayon marks all over the walls and furniture?  I can answer that and so can half of you, we all know that it is permanent marker.  I honestly think there could be nothing worse than permanent marker on your walls, furniture and counter tops.  We all know that a permanent marker should be kept up out of reach of children but the chance of your child getting his or her hands on a permanent marker can be inevitable.  We all know that their little fingers and eyes can spot items that are off limits.
