We made our own mikado game out of skewer sticks (some were washed and reused). The children had fun painting and creating their own game. This was part of a lesson on making your own toys.

Cork Sheet and Twig Door Hanging
A friend of mine gave me some old cork sheets. I remember seeing a great idea at: http://crafts.kaboose.com/leafy-door-hanger.html We decided to make our door hanging using the cork which we painted. The kids glued the leaves onto some string and tied them to a twig. They were a great hit!

Egg Carton Game - Ball Toss
For the summer we decided to make our own games out of recycled materials. We started by making a toss game out of an egg carton. We made the toss ball out of an old sock. Painted the cartons bright colors, each color worth different points, white means you win and black is game over.

We made wall hangings with cardboard looms and some yarn pieces. We asked the moms and grand-moms to please donate scraps of yarn. Once done, we inserted a twig on top. Then we tied off the ends and added old beads and shells.

Egg Carton Flowers
Egg carton cups, magazine rolls and a cereal box. We cut the egg carton cups, rolled magazines and cut the flower bases out of the cereal boxes.
Painted the egg carton cups and back of the cereal boxes in spring colors.
My kids made the flowers assembly line style and gave bouquets to the ones they love.

Once they had chosen a figure to color and cut-out, the fun began. They took bits and pieces and constructed a scene around their figures.
