How do you get crayon off glass?

My 2 yr. old has written on the tv, sliding glass doors, window in my truck, and my full length mirror in my bathroom with crayon. LMAO.. I've got the color off but the wax still remains and is smearing in my truck! Any ideas? Windex does NOT cut it, hot water does not melt it, LMAO!

    NB Don't use a hair dryer on the glass of your TV as uneven heating could cause it to crack/shatter.

    I found out recently that toothpaste is the preferred method of removing wax crayon from hard surfaces.

    If it was wax crayons hold a hairdryer on the crayon marks for a few seconds and wipe off with tissue

    Razor blade from a box cutter will scrape the crayon off.

    Works great - then use some tub and tile cleaner.

    I've also used Orange Glow, another cleaner to get crayon off of walls and doors.

    I found that furniture polish (especially Pledge) will remove candle wax smears. I have never tried it on crayon, but wax is wax. It would be worth a try!

    Try this: Put a paper towel over it and use a hair dryer to heat the paper towel. Eventually the wax will melt and get sucked into the paper towel.

    How about scraping the wax off with a single-edge razor blade?

    Buy some GooBGone. It was originally designed to remove the residue from price stickers left behind when peeled off. It will remove any sort of "goo". I use it all the time.

    Get out the old hair dryer. Heat up the wax and wipe it off

    Goof-Off! It's a product that you can buy and it will remove crayon and all kids of other things. You can get it at hardware stores.

    Wax is a grease. Any dish soap will work to remove it. Soap and water on a sponge - scrub - rinse - all done.
