Kids Can Make Candles?
That doesn't seem very safe.

Yes, they can make the dipped candles. I made candles in grade school. The teacher melted the wax on a hot plate, which is just a little 1 or 2 burner stove that sits on a table and plugs in. Then we put wicks in Dixie cups and ladled the wax in. It was fun. I put a ton glitter in mine and layered hot pink wax over purple wax. Then once they cooled all the way and got hard we tore the cups off.
Lol, when I burned mine at home it stunk because all the glitter started melting we had to throw it out. ???
That just reminded me of when my sister decided to make a candle by melting a box of 64 crayons ( paper still on ) in a large sauce pan. It stunk up the for days.
Ha ha we used to melt crayons in grade school on the radiator and then pour them onto paper swirl the colors and then pull them off the paper and cut the disks into shapes that we would put on string to make necklaces and bracelets.
