Make a double boiler. Which means you put water in the bottom pot and put the other pot inside of it tilted. When the water starts to boil add the crayons to the top pot. They will melt down.

Lay a piece of newspaper on the countertop and the egg cartoons on top of that. Carefully pour the melted crayons into the cartoon.
