Being green isn’t a new idea! Long ago, kids and families reused and “recycled” materials every day, sometimes in surprising ways. Make a plastic basket or braided rug out of recycled materials, and use your detective skills to figure out what different historic artifacts were made from.
Can you decode the hidden messages? Be a super sleuth for the day and try to deduce the meaning behind symbols used by people long ago and today. Send a secret message using the Victorian language of flowers or the modern day language of emojis! Kids can also make a Victorian flower bookmark or an emoji stress ball.
