Heres my recipe for making water proof fire starter:
Take wax (since its hard to find parafin) and melt it in something you don't mind getting ruined with wax. A little goes a long way. I heat it in a little sauce pan over the stove. When it is all melted into a liquid then pour in in either sawdust or put in dryer lint mash it down so the wax sqeezes through it and saturates it.
I like dryer lint best but either will work. Lay it out on a paper plate. I make a cake out of the sawdust and then put it in the fridge to harden quicker. Take it out an put it in a baggie to keep the wax off everything else in your pack.
If doing this with kids keep an eye on the hot wax so no one gets burned.
