Eco-bag

Children decorate cotton bags to replace plastic bags.

Steps

1. We talk about why plastic bags harm nature.
2. Children paint on the bags with fabric paints.
3. After drying, we iron the design.
4. They take the bags shopping.

Tip: Put cardboard under the bag so the paint doesn't bleed through.

Materials needed

• Cotton bags (1 per child)
• Fabric paints (1 set)
