We throw away thousands of plastic bottles every day. Here's an opportunity to give them a second life and teach children the importance of recycling at the same time.

Empty plastic bottles and containers (i.e. water bottles or 2 liter soda bottles)
Elmer’s Squeeze ’n Brush
Elmer’s Washable School Glue Gel
Construction paper
Eyes
Pipe cleaners
Paper cups
Paper plates etc.

Have each student decide on an animal they would like to create and gather the supplies needed to create that animal. It can even be an animal of their own creation.

Allow students time to create their animal.

Use a plastic bottle or similar type of container for the animal’s body

Encourage the students to use creativity and details in their decoration

Set animals aside to dry
