Who hasn’t experienced this? Empty kitchen paper rolls, old clothes and empty plastic bottles accumulate in the corner of the household. Instead of simply throwing them away, you can start colorful craft projects with your children and encourage their creativity together. Upcycling is the keyword! Here are a few ideas and instructions for simple DIY projects that are not only fun, but also good for the environment and your wallet
Collect empty cardboard rolls of toilet and kitchen paper and transform them into funny, colorful monsters. Your children can paint the rolls with acrylic paint or felt-tip pens, cut out eyes and teeth and stick them on. Some threads can be used as hair for the monsters and, of course, glitter and the like can also be added. In no time at all, funny creatures are created that can populate the children’s room. These little monsters are also perfect as decorations for birthday parties or Halloween.

Empty plastic bottles can easily be transformed into pretty flower pots. Simply cut off the top part of the bottle with scissors and let the children paint the bottom part with bright colors and decorate as they wish. Finally, poke a few holes in the bottom of the bottle so that the water can run off, add some soil and a plant – and the individual flower pot is ready! This upcycling idea not only teaches children to take responsibility for the environment, but also for plants.
Old jeans that have become too short or too tight don’t have to be thrown out straight away. They can easily be turned into cool upcycling projects! For example, cut off the trouser legs together with the children and sew them together to make practical pockets. Or use the trouser pockets to sew them onto an apron or a bag. Another option is to make discarded jeans (or other items of clothing) look nicer with other fabrics or fabric colors – maybe the new look will give them another chance in the kids’ closet.
Old cardboard boxes and packaging can be transformed into fantastic robots! Cut out different cardboard parts with your children and have them paint them in bright colors. All the parts can be glued together with adhesive tape or craft glue to create individual cardboard robots. Fun accessories such as buttons for eyes or aluminum foil for antennas can also be made from unwanted household materials. This DIY project not only promotes creativity, but also encourages children to think in a playful way.
With these simple craft projects, everyday materials that are no longer needed can be turned into something new and creative in no time at all. Not only do children learn about the value of recycling and upcycling, they can also let their imagination run wild. So, let’s get to work with the “old” materials and get creative together with the children!
