Great Way to Recycle! Recycling Tips!
Ever wonder what to do with the "stuff" that is left-over when you finish an art project. Stuff like yarn, felt, colorful buttons, beads, colored pencils, paper scraps with interesting designs, fabric - those things just a bit too small to use. Well, here's an idea! Why not donate them to a school. Primary teachers, like myself, are always looking for items to incorporate into their lessons. Varying the materials that are used to teach will provide a full sensory experience and make learning more hands-on and fun.
As a teacher, I try to recycle on a daily basis and teach my students about the importance and merits of recycling. Any items I have left- over from completed projects are donated to my school. It's my way of doing something for our environment - it reduces the cost for the teacher and the kids have fun. If you are interested in donating unused craft items, that can be used by primary teachers, please contact me at: snipped-for-privacy@gmail.com. Thanks, Neko
