A little roundup of recycling projects to do with your kids:

 

 



Tin Can Caddy @ Cynthia Shaffer

Cereal Box Notepads @ Infarrantly Creative

Popcicle Bracelets @ Suzy's Arty-Crafty Sitcom

I also want to highlight a wonderful site called TPcraft.com.

Toilet paper rolls are some of the easiest things to recycle. Everyone has them available and they are completely free. Shannon at TPcraft.com shares great crafts that she does with her four year old son and my favorite part is that she pairs each craft with a book suggestion! Check out some of the spring/Easter crafts she has posted recently:

Fluffy Sheep



Cute Little Bunny

Bunny in Grass

I plan on doing each of these with Sweet Pea today!

What are you going to do with your little ones to celebrate Earth Day? Sustainability starts young and by setting a good example we pave the way for a "greener" next generation.
