Plastic Packaging (like the thick packaging battery rechargers come in)

• Use a larger piece for an erasable message pad for phone messages, etc.
• On a large piece, draw several tic-tac-toe boards with permanent marker. Give kids wet-erase markers to play with. Wipe clean when all boards are filled.
• Make your own reusable calendar by drawing in boxes with permanent marker and adding numbers and notes with wet-erase markers.
• Use larger pieces as a small "chalk board" for children. Keep wet-erase markers and a cloth for erasing handy.
• Glue a magnet to the back of a larger piece and keep it on the fridge for messages.
• Glue a piece to the lids of plastic containers. Use for labeling and dating food when you put it in the fridge or freezer. (Make sure you use erasable markers.)
• Use the plastic packaging that Easter candy comes in (those shaped like bunnies) as molds for making your own chocolate.
• Make bird feeder molds (instructions for doing this will appear next time I update this). (Christine)
