by babysugar 11

Something as simple as a grocery bag helps teach your child about recycling and finding other uses for eco-friendly materials. Using our staple — the cardboard box — you can create a larger than life grocery bag filled with your tot's favorite foods (or the contents of your recycle bin).

Supplies you will need:

• Medium-sized cardboard box
• Green paint (the Livos Salis finger paints can be diluted with a little water to make them paintbrush accessible)
• Box cutter
• Wide black ribbon
• Grocery items from recycle bin
• Stapler
