Gives step-by-step instructions for making a variety of craft projects from such recyclable items as paper bags, boxes, cans, dairy containers, and jars
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
PreSchool-Grade 2-Cans and peaked cartons are the recyclables here, with lots of paper and paint added to disguise and change ordinary containers into something very different and much more colorful. Also used are foam and plastic cups, plastic forks and spoons, bags, jars, plastic bottles, eggshells, paper plates, balloons, glue, and tape. There is a good list of recyclables and where to get them along with drawings of them, but there are no instructions about washing the containers with soap and water before using them. Most of the projects are best suited to five-through seven-year-olds, who will need adult help reading and following the directions. Twenty-seven of the creations are pictured in full color on eight pages; the remaining 60 or so are shown in black and white. Each project is clearly and completely presented on facing pages with numbered instructions and drawings of the final product. Activities range from extremely simple to fairly complex. The very best part of this book is the play at the end. The "Know Your Earth Quiz Show" is wonderfully laid out and includes thorough directions. The script is full of excellent information, well presented. It is great for any group of children to produce and present.
