C's Scientific Method

G informed me that she "accidentally" [read: she did something she now regrets] wrote on her carpet with a crayon.  My initial cleaning attempt was unsuccessful, but I had to stop and let it dry so I could try something else.  C mentioned that a friend at school [a notoriously unreliable source:] told him a pencil eraser would erase crayon.  He wanted me to try that next. I explained that I didn't think that would work and left the room to go do something else.  Later, when I went back to finish cleaning the spot, C says "Mom, you were right.  I tried it in my room and an eraser won't get crayon out of carpet." 

Problem is his carpet WAS crayon free until he decided to run his little experiment, and I now have not one but two crayon stains to clean...SWEET! :)
