Creative Ideas

This past Saturday our municipal Enviornmental Committe hosted a Earth Day Celebration at our local high-school.

On display were projects created by our local school children that were made entirely from recyclable materials.

One creative pair made a table top pool table from paper towel rolls, paper, and tin cans. Also on hand was a bowling game made with empty soda bottles. One of my favorites.....a simple but GREAT reusable project. A liquid fabric softener bottle decorated with paint and with holes drilled in the lid to be used as a watering can. The kids really put a lot of effort into their projects and it showed. Very creative bunch.

The municipal shade tree commission also offered violets and a dogwood tree for raffle as well as offering seedlings and information on their care.

With summer days quickly approaching, my daughter and I got some great summer project ideas.
