DIY Holder

Its Summer time here in USA. 2.5 months of holidays. Play time,Screen time and Play dates are doubled, yet kids get bored often. So here, easy craft works or DIY projects help us a lot :)


Today, I wanted to talk about 3 R's Reduce-Reuse-Recycle . They are learning about Recycling at school. We discussed how we can  Reuse the things we have at home, and how it cut down the waste we throw away. She told me, at school how they reused the egg carton to organize the shells. I also showed her how Gayathri has used the cereal box to create a cool Father's day gift. She wants to try it soon. Just waiting for us to buy a cereal box :)

What you need:

1. Clean Shampoo bottle.
2. Cloth or duct tape
3. Scissors/ Card board cutter
4. Glue
5. Pom pom and a button to decorate




This part takes little time and patience. I helped her with folding the cloth so that it looks neat.
There are lots of colored and decorated duct tapes available at the market. Those are so easy to use.
