So my darling daughter :) scribbled red crayon on our cream colored tile. Any ideas on how to remove it? I thought it would come up when I mopped and scrubbed it a bit but no luck. Thought you ladies might have a better idea before I try 20 different things. Thanks!

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

Thanks eveyone for the great ideas. I'm currently overseas and can't just pop out to Wal-mart as their is nothing like that here. I will give these ideas a try and maybe I can get the magic eraser mailed to me! Thanks so much!

My daughter colored the bath tub. I used the hair dryer to heat it, it is wax after all. Then used a rough rag to get it off. I didn't have to use the Mr Clean eraser though it probably would work also. I think it has a lot to do with how the tile is sealed also.

I hear that the Mr. Clean magic eraser will get crayon off. Back when my now 25 year old daughter was little, she was a crayon fiend, and my best friend was WD-40 which takes crayon off anything non porous, but then leaves an oily residue that you have to clean with something soapy. But it works.

Goo gone works it is yellow citrus-y scented liquid, we used it to get crayon off the tables at La Petite, it works wonderfully, they have it at Walmart.

Magic erase did the trick on our tile when my daughter colored outside the lines and the page on our tile floor.
