Guys,

My darling daughter has used the LCD TV to draw on... any idea's of the best way to remove?

Mrs S tried rubbing off with baby wipes before telling me.
 
WD-40 is meant to be good for removing crayon, but not sure how it'll go down on a tv! OK if it's glass front I supose and used very very sparingly.
 
Meths is pretty good and safe on most things ... e.g. I use it to clean the touch screen on the Tom Tom. There are probably specialised LCD wipes though.
 
I agree try meths, or paraffin based product used sparingly with cotton wool.
 
id try medi wipes first

or IPA which is the basic ingredient
 
Try Baby oil,or a similar oil - do not use any paraffin based product as suggested,as this will contain an aliphatic solvent and will likely as not make the screen brittle after some time and it will crack,or discolour - for the same reason,do not use any car detailing items,as they will contain either some sort of aliphatic,or worse more harsher aromatic solvent,which will be death to the plastic !!! - surprisingly,toothpaste,not gel,may also do the trick as its a water based mild abrasive - colgate probably best.
