Crayons are mostly wax, right? I would try a white cotton cloth against the TV and then a warm iron to heat the wax...hopefully it would then stick to the cloth.
What you may want to do though is check the crayon box for a 1-800 number. Call it and ask the manufacturer what they recommend. I'm sure they've heard it all before!
Hey, what's your Ebay user name? I could use a couple of rugrats who like to draw, lol!

I heard that WD40 works. I would ask the manufacturer or a tv dealer first. Don't use petrol or any household cleaners containing ammonia etc, they will make the screen turn yellow over time. Plasma screens scratch very easily so don't use kitchen paper or tissues. Use screen cleaner pads available at computer dealers instead. In fact ,they might even take off the crayon. Good luck!

Righty hun dont panic, i think i have the answer, but read carefully
I seen it on Kim and Aggie, How Clean Is Your House!!! but the crayon marks were on wallpaper, and they say to use toothpaste(NOT THE GEL TYPE), and wipe away gently, again this is on wallpaper and not a plasma tv, id give it a try though, very best of luck and keep crayons up high away from little fingers!!!!.xxx

Wait for the screen to cool so the crayon is hard.
If the layer is thick scrape it off with a razor blade.
Then wipe the rest off with white spirit on a rag - I've also found some polishes work like white spirit but are not so quick.

Besure to have the tv off and unplug. Spray it with Lysol Basin,tub and tile cleane. Make sure this is the foaming kind it is important because it picks up as it foams. You can buy crayon eraseres at the books stores also. Good Luck. How old are the kids, I would like to bid on them, I love kids.

I would try a Brillo pad, or a blow lamp, but only because it's YOUR plasma screen, not mine, and I'm jealous!
