Irresistible Ideas for Play-Based Learning
There's no reason for store-bought gift
wrap when you have artists at home that will
work for the joy of creating :) Reuse as much
paper as you can - newspaper, packaging paper,
grocery bags, copy paper - and get out the paint,
markers, stamps, stickers, and crayons for
some wrapping paper fun!

(there's also a cute printable garland!)
Several years ago we went paper-free and now
all of our gifts are tucked into reuseable fabric
bags which I love! I'll come back here and add
some links for simple bags to make - this is a
great beginning sewing project too :)
