Fun Fair Games

Ring toss made from recycled materials.

Fun was had by all at the Cottage Fun Fair today. Students enjoyed playing the games to learn about recycling, composting, and waste-free lunch. They also made some fun recycled and upcycled crafts to take home!

At Fun Fair you may have noticed our display of really cool things you can make with items you might be tempted to toss out at first glance. Kudos to Hana and Crystal! :)

Make some toys for Faithful Fido out of old t-shirts...

A great way to hang your suet for your feathered friends...

An old fleece jacket can make a great stuffed toy. Fill a cloth pocket with rice or flaxseeds for a wonderful eye pillow.
