If your paint is old I wouldn't try this.

Put paper towel on the crayan and then put the warm iron on the towel. The wax melts and the towel sucks it up. The thicker the towel the better. It worked on my walls.

Good Luck

have you tried WD 40? that will usually take crayon off, I don't know about it on flat walls though, usually when you clean those it will take the paint off too....

Good luck,
Eileen

Oh I know how you feel.I had flat paint in my kitchen and living room and you should've seen the wall behind my stove.Yucky yucky grease stains.I tried everything to clean them but nothing worked.I hope you find something that does work.

Oh and we had those washable crayons when dd was little(well smaller )and they wouldn't come off flat paint.Gosh I sound like a big bummer don't I?

Ifr you have any stain remover like shout or spray and wash try that I have had some success. Hairspray is also something to try it is no fail with markers, but I do not know about crayons.
