Is the screen smooth ot textured? If smooth, try a razor blade. VERY CAREFULLY. And keep the blade angle LOW.
If there is a texture, you'll need to use some type of solvent to break down the wax. Don't use anything until you have consulted with the manufacturer to be sure the solvent won't attack the screen surface.

I'm not sure if this will work on the big screen tv, but the Magic eraser (found in the cleaning section of the supermarket) is a white sponge, that you get damp and then clean with. It got crayon off our walls in no time and was really incredible. I think is called Magic eraser, or it definitely starts with the word "Magic".

Actually, it can matter what type of TV you have. If you have an LCD, you might not want to use a magic eraser, as pressure on the screen can damage it. Same goes for certain types of projection tvs.
However, if the screen is GLASS or is covered with a glass plate, a magic eraser should be safe to use.
Don't use rubbing alcohol or any cleaning chemicals not designed for cleaning TVs

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!

Crayola actually makes a product now that is called something like crayon remover. You can order it directly from them.
Try www.crayola.com - you will want to check if the solution will harm the big screen before using it however.
The stuff works - it took crayon marks off my floors and walls without removing the paint.

I'm assuming you have tried soap and water, if so and it was not succesful try some kind of solvent as long as the screen is made of glass and not plastic. Methylated spirits might be appropriate. A small amount applied with a soft cloth should be ok provided the screen is made of glass.

You've gotten good responses so far....I would suggest heating it a little with a hair dryer and wiping it clean with a cloth.
