don't heat the drawings if the walls are painted with flat wall paint!get a bottle of Goo Gone at a hardware store. it removes sticky labels from things and heel marks from floors and crayon. i use it all of the time. it's citrus oil and after you get the crayon off just wash the area with soap and water. good luck.

Things You’ll Need: Broom Cleaning eraser Lubricating oil Baking soda White toothpaste Step1 Walk through your home and identify the types of dirt, grime and marks you must clean. Keep a list of what you find and note the appropriate way to clean each wall. Step2 Clean loose dirt and cobwebs with a broom. Sweep up the debris when finished. Step3 Use a cleaning eraser, available in many retail stores, to clean handprints and children's drawings from the walls in your home. Get the cleaning eraser wet and wring out excess water. Apply gentle pressure while you rub on the dirty area. There is no need to wash the eraser as it will work until there are no further cleansing agents inside it. Step4 Try lubricating oil on crayon marks. This product on a paper towel removes the waxy substance. Step5 Baking soda and white toothpaste remove scuffmarks. The natural cleaning combination of baking soda, white vinegar and ammonia also works well to clean walls. ------------------------------- Tips : Common flat finish house paint responds well to gentle cleaning. Enameled paint finishes clean easily with most cleaning products, as do stain-resistant finishes. This product does not remove as much of the wall protective covering as other products.

Scrape off what you can with a fingernail. Crayons are wax based, so try heating it. Use a low iron and iron a washcloth over the area. The iron will melt the wax and it will stick to the more porous terry cloth wash cloth. I have used this method to remove crayon from clothing and wax candle drips from clothes and carpet.
Try the iron on the lowest setting. Wax has a very low melting point. You don't want to burn the paint and blister it, so be careful. If your cloths are thin, use two.
The color from the crayon, if it is bright, might be there forever.
Good luck.
