Subject: Recycle Spare Clothes Buttons and yarn scraps
Hi Fellow "Tree Huggers", Over the years I've asked my friends to donate their old holiday cards (the ones they usually toss in the garbage after the holiday). I use them in my classroom with my first grade students. We keep the image and toss the portions written on in the recycle bin. Lots of folks responded and I am thankful.
Now I have another idea. I would like to know if anyone would like to donate spare clothes buttons and unused yarn scraps. These items are fun and safe for kids to work with. In the past we have used them to make frames, planters, holiday decoration. I've even incorporated them in my science and math lessons. So if you have a bunch of stuff gathering dust in a box, please let use help you put it to good use. All sizes and shapes are welcomed. If you are interested in making a donation, please contact me at: Working together we can begin to teach kids that recycle in fun and good for our planet.
