I Am Not A Cereal Box - The Recycling Project Book (Paperback) - Sara Stanford

Recycle empty cereal boxes into craft creations with this fun DIY book.

Reduce, reuse and recycle! Gather up a pile of cereal boxes and a few other bits and bobs, and turn them into the most colourful robot, pony, dinosaur or train you can imagine! This is the perfect book for fun projects to keep kids busy when they're stuck indoors, using scrap materials from around the house.

With step-by-step instructions and handy cut-outs this book has ten brilliant projects (and a dozen variations) that are sure to keep kids happy and engaged with hours of fun. Animal lovers can build their own elephant or horse and budding engineers can craft their first car or even a marble run.

Those with the smallest of fingers may need a little help with cutting and gluing, but these projects are a fantastic introduction into crafting and perfect for kids to make on their own or fun for the whole family.

Each project has a clear list of everything you will need, and the ideas are easy to customise to your little one's interest. Your new horse can quickly become a unicorn and your aquarium can go from a tranquil sea to a shipwreck full of pirate treasure.

And, if you don't fancy painting, reuse all that wrapping paper to make a Christmasaurus, festive guitar or colourful theatre.

Not a fan of cereal? You can have just as much fun if you happen to have a load of toilet rolls, egg cartons or old socks. Pick your favourite item to reuse and get crafting with the Recycling Project Book series:

I Am Not An Old Sock;
