We really enjoying reading and exploring a craft blog from England called Red Ted’s Art Blog. So many of the fun creations found there are made from household items, recycled or repurposed materials. On Maggie Wooley’s Red Ted blog, you can find dozens of ways to have fun with young children without having to consume more stuff or add more trash to the wastestream.
Check out this “Grass Heads” post. She’s taken old stockings, dirt, grass seeds and few other items and made little creatures that will delight both young and old alike. And after about 12 days – they’ll need a haircut!
Now that’s family fun that’s really green and growing!
