I have been preaching my daughter about recycling. Not only putting the recyclable items into our recycling bin, but also to think about recycling items for different uses.
Last week, I helped her make a kiddy purse. The idea comes from Market Day.
It's very simple. Just find an old sturdy box. Flip it inside out, put a knotted end ribbon in between the flaps. Or if there's no flaps, make a knot and tape it on the side. Finally, let her decorate. She's so proud with her purse. She even take the purse to the church. She's happy because she has activity to decorate the purse while we are happy to have a quite service...
Other than making it into kiddy purse, there are several ideas including using the flip inside out box for storage, make kids building blocks toys and may be a cheap light box?
Here's an idea by lollygirl that uses old box to make your own light box
What's your idea for recycling?
