Looking for a fun activity for kids that will also teach them about reducing waste? Try turning to your trash for inspiration. We collected bottle caps and turned them into a checkers game that kids enjoy and that was practically free to make.
Metal bottle caps from soda or beer bottles are recyclable,
but some curbside programs don’t accept them. Luckily, these caps make great
materials for craft projects. With a flat piece of cardboard, markers, and
paint, kids can make a homemade, reused game. Just cut the cardboard into a
square, measure the squares and color them with markers, and paint the tops of
half the caps one color and half another. This project offers a great hands-on way for kids to see that something that might look like trash can be reused. Plus, the game will entertain kids even after the project is complete.
