My 18-month-old daughter loves to play with crayons. When she "decorated" my wall (for the first time, hopefully the last), I was actually in the same room with her, but my attention was diverted elsewhere. It sure didn't take her long to produce this masterpiece. I quickly sent out a "HeyYou" on Facebook: Quick - does anyone know how to get crayon off the wall? I googled the same question and found a number of things that are supposed to work. One is Mr. Clean's Magic Eraser. I don't have any of those, though I will by tomorrow! I tried what I had on hand, dishwashing liquid, Zout, and finally Lestoil.
Lestoil is a grease remover. I learned about it from a blog that I no longer follow. I've used it to remove stains from clothing, though it doesn't always work. With a little bit of elbow grease to go along, the crayon marks came right up.
I also tried baby wipes, and they worked, but I had to use a lot more elbow grease.
