Happy Earth Day!
I'd like to start the day by showing you some toys made by Atelier des Enfants , a wonderful children's art workshop/blog in Paris.
Handmade Colour Wheel
As I pointed out here, toys do not have to be expensive or elaborate, a bit of imagination suffices to bring a smile to any child's face. Odile and Junko's creations were crafted from everyday, easy-to-find objects and were all inspired by Arvind Gupta's amazing Toys From Trash site.
The Toys from Trash gallery is choc-full of craft activities for you and your kids. Simple paper engineering, beginner's biology, amazing astronomy, magic maths... the list is long , promising hours of educational fun and above all, teaching children the vital importance of those three special R's - Reduce, Reuse, Recycle.
