How did you "scrape" through the black? Just with fingernails? When you say, "overlay with black", you just mean that you colored over the top with black crayon? I have several nephews + nieces who might actually want to do this.

Fingernails work, it's what I used when I did this a few times. Your nails just get really gunky :\ Otherwise, a smooth-edged knife works pretty well. Anything with a decent edge, not sharp. Rounded edges don't work. Overlaying with black is, yes, covering the whole page with black crayon. So, the steps: Fill ENTIRE page with colored crayon patches / squiggles. Color over ENTIRE page with black crayon. Try to make it TOTALLY black. Scrape off with fingernail / knife / wooden clay tools / whatever. Hang on the fridge to admire for several generations. Ultimately, it's a cheaper way of doing those scratch-drawing things, and doesn't require sharp tools and a careful hand to not gouge the paper.

  This is a good technique not just for kids, but for making art in general. I recommend trying it with oil pastels. Also, the bottom layer need not be colored randomly, but could use a single color or maybe a limited-color palette. Likewise, the top color need not be black, but should cover the colors underneath. Lots of room for experimentation here.

Here is a step-by-step guide: http://www.ehow.com/how_4783750_scratch-art-drawings.html http://www.ehow.com/how_4783750_scratch-art-drawings.html My only recommended change would be that step #4 doesn't use nearly enough black. You don't just want to lightly color over the background, you want to literally put a layer of black wax on top of the background. When you're done, no color should really be showing through. It can be a lot of fun with children, enjoy!

Usually use a nickel or a penny to scrape through the surface. Yes, overlay - use big cheap black crayon to cover up the patterns - not the expensive Crayola type
