Recycled Puzzles

We love using found and natural materials in our learning experiences at home and school. Here is a wonderful way to recycle an old food box that I learned from my friends at the Parenting and Family Literacy Centres.

First cut the face off a food box. I like to use products my children are very familiar with.


Cut it into random puzzle-type pieces.


Encourage your child to fit the pieces back together just like he or she would with a commercially bought puzzle.


Celebrate and do it again!


This activity can be repeated with any product packaging and is a great way to infuse a little math into your daily activities! So easy!
