We Have...And I'm not happy about it.
I started a load of laundry Saturday Night because I needed clean spit rags for Riglee. When I started putting the load in the drier, I saw yellowish paper in the bottom of the washer and couldn't figure out what it was. Then I found half a green crayon, half an orange crayon and then both halves. We checked the clothes and shook them before putting the load in the dryer. When I went to take the load out of the drier Sunday Morning, I found a brown crayon in there and there was orange crayon on about 10 pieces of clothes (including the white tank top for me that I had thrown in there to wear to church under my dress). There was an orange ring in the dryer.
I had already showered luckily - but spent a good bit of the rest of my morning scrubbing the drier with a magic eraser. It faded a lot - I can still see a faint orange streak here and there - I started drying my hair at 8:40 and church starts at 9! We made it just in time to take the sacrament.
I am still trying to get the crayon out of the clothes though. I washed them this morning with tide with bleach just to see if I would get lucky and it would come out...it didn't.
Then I used the Clorox 2 stick on all of the spots and washed them again - still not out.
I made Adam google how to get crayon out of clothes - it said to use WD-40...Really?!?! Yep that's what it says...
So Adam sprayed the clothes and scrubbed and we washed again. There are still some marks but at least they are faint.
I hope to never wash crayon again!
Thanks Parker for sticking them in your pocket and not taking them out!!

No crayon yet but I have washed TONS of pens...my dryer is horribly stained!
You can try oxi clean stain remover too. It seems to get almost all stains out of our clothes.
