I just had my interview with Kristin Louise, my mom and I got to explore the Crayola Experience! There where four floors so we decided to do each floor one at a time. Here are the top four activities at the Crayola experience.

#1 Wrap It Up. Wrap It Up is a machine where you could make your own label for a crayon for example you could choose your color that you wanted, write anything you wanted on it and then put a design next to it. I did this a bunch of times.

#2 Spin Art. Spin Art is a machine where you melt whatever crayons you want and when they melt it is being poured onto a piece of paper that is spinning and than it turns out as a melted crayon piece of artwork!

#3 Crayola Factory. The Crayola Factory is a room where there are machines that resemble of how Crayola crayons are made. For example, there are five machines that are used to make Crayola crayons #1 The melter pot. When Crayola gets its crayons it is just a big block of wax so they put it in a melter pot and it turns into liquid. #2 The shaper tray. Than they pour the liquid into this big tray with a bunch of molds of crayons and wait for it to harden and scrape off all the assess.#4 The table. Than they take the crayons and put them on a table. #5 The wrapper machine. Than people take the crayons off the table and put it into the wrapping machine which than wraps all the crayons.(Fun Fact, There are more than 400 colors but only 13 wrappers that Crayola uses)#6 The packaging machine. Last The crayons go to a wrapping machine that puts all the different colors into different packages.

#4 Melt and Mold. Melt and Mold is a machine that melts a crayon and that crayon melts into a different mold which turns into something like a crayon ring e.t.c.

Than we leave Crayola and decided to visit the actuall factory which is about 20 minutes away. When we get there the entrance it is all blocked off with a train track going into the factory we are not allowed to go into the factory but we take a picture of it. It was SO cool. Than the main headquarters are right next to it. The day was so fun and I learned a lot. I thought it was so fun and was the best part of Capstone so far and I learned a lot.
