today was my first go at "trash to treasure." i gave the kids an idea of what i was thinking (i made a smartboard with pictures and everything).
i have a lovely group of kids who seemed up for anything. i even have 3 boys who tolerated all of my girlie ideas and altered them to fit their own liking!
We plan to tie dye the next time, but today we made tote bags out of old t-shirts. while cutting the arms off of the shirts, the girls asked, "what should we do with these?" HEADBANDS! they went to work and i think got more excited about the headbands than the tote bags!
i have plenty of other ideas in mind...even if we don't get to them during activity period, i hope to do some hear when there is time.
