First assemble the base of your crayon friend by gluing your popsicle sticks together to look like a fence {3 jumbo next to each and two mini across}

Set aside to let it dry completely.

Now grab your paint, paint brush and popsicle stick base. Have children paint the front of it any color they like, while you cut out a crayon "tip" from the cardstock.

To finish off the Popsicle Stick Crayons craft, have children glue the cardstock piece to the popsicle stick design, along with drawing on a face with the remaining paint.

When done decorating your popsicle stick shape, set it aside to let everything dry completely.

Then display proudly and read a book afterwards in honor!
