Thanks Macette. Its nice to get feedback since I am obviously not a pro at making a video. Hopefully, the viewers will ignore the glitches and learn from the content.

Thanks for your creative recycling ideas for fun and helpful games for children. I am an OT re-entering the field after a long break (raising my own family) and am busy gathering and making toys to use in therapy. Perfect! Deb

Absolutely fabulous! I'm an OT working for a school system. We have no funds for supplies, so these ideas will be perfect. Thank you so much!

Maby some flat piecese can be made into refrigerator magnets, and some into mobiles using fishing string/line. Me and my wife made a mobile out of long colored "pipe cleaners" once, and it was of the letters of love and they were at various heights but close. Thanks for the vid, theres so many of those plastic containers and most arn't even recycled I guess.
