Grab those leftovers! No, I’m not talking ham and deviled eggs. I mean the eggshells and empty egg cartons you were going to throw in the trash.
Here are a couple ideas for some creative kid crafts that make great use of materials you’d otherwise just throw away.

Eggshell Planters

You’ll Need… Eggshells, potting soil (or dirt), bean or grass seeds, egg carton or cardboard, markers or tempera paints, or glue and glitter.

Egg Carton Critters

You’ll Need… An empty egg carton, markers, crayons, or tempera paints, pipe cleaners (or similar), googly eyes (if you have them).
