Recycling Things to Make and Do (Usborne Activities)

This little book is great for making something for nothing, excellent if like me you don't have a vast amount of dosh to spend in hobby shops. So many things you can make by raiding your recycling bin or grabbing stuff just before it goes in the bin even if you are not sure what you are going to do with it is amazing how much stuff 'could come in handy for something' I was always a hoarder and sadly this book has made me worse but I don't care I loved it and it will be great for the grandchildren when they are a little older. Excellent value for money too!

Another really good book from Usborne. This one inspires adults and children to be creative using materials which we would generally throw away.

As a person who greatly cares for the environment and enjoys crafts, this book was worth buying because I think it's a good idea to turn materials that can be recycled into creative projects. I have already made a tube person and a castle desk tidy (I added my own style to each) and they turned out quite well. I might even try to make a mobile or a robot collage next. Because this book has 32 pages, I find it a bit brief but it was good value for money and it helps the environment. 4/5.

All of those little things you hang onto because you know they'll be 'useful' at some point; this book has a use for them all! I've had some great lessons at school seeing what we could do with what the kids regarded as junk. Very easy to follow

Bought this for my nieces as they like crafty things to do and its just using things round the house and so doesnt cost. The have enjoyed using this when stuck inside with all the bad weather. I would recommend this (so would my sis as it kept them occupied for hours). Thumbs up all round from us.

Bought for my daughter. Was a little disappointed as thought it would be for plastic bottle etc as well as paper and card. Not all creations have step by step instructions.

I purchased this book after borrowing it from my local Library. As I run a childrens' craft class it is full of great ideas.

Bought for my newly qualified teacher daughter to give her some ideas for her art classes with 5 year old children. Really good ideas and easy to make projects.

Lots of ideas of how to create fun crafts with everyday items. Nice for both boys and girls to make.
