Have your kids shown an interest in the recycling movement? We recently had the opportunity to check out these neat bags from TerraCycle and while I was surprised at first (didn’t expect it to be quite so “recycled”) they are a ton of fun and my daughter just loves them! We got the Goodness Grapeness shoulder strap bag which she has used on several beach trips so far! She also got this fun pencil case (pictured above) that is made out of recycled Capri Sun packages. How fun is this?! Plus, it is a large sized pencil case so you can fit a complete box of pencils plus more inside of it!
One of our favorite school items from The Ultimate Green Store is the Terracycle Clif Kid Z Bar Upcycled Backpack, a unique backpack made from upcycled snack bar wrappers! The Terracycle company launched a campaign to reduce landfill waste, fashioning this sweet bag from the wrappers of Clif Kid Z Bar Health Bars. Not to worry, the used wrappers are fully sanitized before undergoing their transformation, and it is a great use for waste that is otherwise not recyclable. Better yet, the material is water-resistant, yet easily cleaned with a damp sponge. It’s roomy and equipped with an adjustable handle, for all your tot’s school day adventures.
