DD2 has drawn all over a wall in my living room with a orange wax crayon. How do I get it off?

Heat or cold.

Hair dryer to melt the max and something to blot it up with. Or you can try ironing the wall, with a cloth to soak up the crayon in between obviously.

Or try making the wax really cold - use ice cubes wrapped in a thin cloth to reduce water marks. Then chip carefully at any wax you can raise up that way.
