We’ve put together a list of some truly inventive uses for recycled materials. Your children will love producing these adorable art projects and making bright winter decorations:
1. Toilet Paper Roll Snowflakes
Do you and your family go through a lot of toilet paper and paper towels? If this is the case, you most likely have a lot of cardboard tubes laying around that need to be recycled. Why not make them into lovely snowflakes instead to better utilise them?

4. Cardboard Gingerbread Playhouse
Use your imagination to make anything out of a cardboard box. Your children will enjoy helping you construct and embellish this festive fort. Extra points are awarded if you also recycle things like paper plates and plastic bottles.
5. Egg Carton Reindeer
Egg cartons are an extremely adaptable, craft-friendly recyclable material, much like cardboard boxes. Keep it whole if your youngsters want to make a reindeer sleigh, or cut out individual pieces to make miniature reindeer. The options are (nearly) limitless!
6. Recycled Newspaper Penguin
After you’ve finished reading the neighbourhood weekend newspaper, spend the rest of the afternoon with the kids skiing penguins.
7. Popsicle Stick Sled
Even while popsicle sticks can be recycled, they aren’t typically kept on hand in significant quantities (unless you love fudgesicles!). To make this one, you might need to purchase the popsicle sticks from an arts and crafts store.
8. Tin Can Lanterns
Tin cans, a popular recyclable, can be repurposed into what we like to refer to as tin “canterns.” It will be worthwhile because of the expression on your children’s faces when you light these at night.
9. Plastic Snowboarding Halfpipe
Give your kids a useful item to play with if you’ve ever caught them using their fingers as a skateboard or snowboard in the past.
10. Milk Jug Igloo
For schools, this recycling activity is perfect. mostly due to the lack of home access to commercial recycling bins that could accommodate the quantity of milk jugs needed to construct this. This kind of community recycling activity is sure to inspire kids to recycle!
