Grade Level: 2 and up

Written by the author of more than 50 crafts books, this clear, colorful title offers a selection of environmentally focused projects that encourage kids to reduce, reuse, and recycle. Both practical and eye-catching, the projects, from pencil cups to decorative pins, rely on everyday discarded items that many kids will find around their homes: broken toys, old clothespins, worn out bath sponges, and lone socks that have lost their mates. Kids may need to purchase supplementary staples to complete the crafts, which are presented in line drawings that demonstrate construction step by step along with color photos of the finished product. Finding new uses for old items is a crafting tradition, but the environmental emphasis feels fresh in this roundup of approachable, inviting projects. A list of resources and tips close. Grades 3-6. --Gillian Engberg”
