Well my 2-year old made his first (and hopefully last!) artistic
endeavor on one of my walls.  Since it occurred while he was
playing with 2 other friends (2 & 4), I'll never know who the real
culprit was.  We'll not discuss group synergy issues here!

Any tried/tested ideas for getting it off the wall?  I've looked at
some of the "Hints for Housekeeping" type books but with no success. 
I had one suggestion I'll use if I get no better one; varnish over the
crayon and then repaint the wall (varnish prevents the crayon
from bleeding through).  I think a good solution should be posted
to the net, since this experience is likely to be one most of us
hit at least once in our careers as parents.
