Many families have a secret stash of recyclables set aside for rainy day art projects. Here's your chance to use some of those overflowing resources. Create a wrap-around mummy with packing materials, such as craft paper or plastic wrap. Staple some bubble wrap to some of your child's old clothes for an interactive costume that friends can pop. Wrap your child in old wrapping paper to make her look like a present.
