Website review: Toys from trash

SUMMER vacation is here and you have plenty of free time now. Many of you have already planned activities for the vacation and besides all the fun you plan to have, you may also be sorting some unused items in and around your house and then throwing or giving them away. But hey, if you are thinking of throwing out some stuff, why not give it one more thought?

Well, you can reuse or make something out of it. No ideas? Here is a website that tell you how to make toys from trash! Yes, you read it right, trash! This amazing site will show you how you can make hundreds of fun toys from the items that are sometimes considered junk or disposable after just one use, for example, empty water bottles, cans, disposable bags, rubber bands, stones, paper and much more. The site also contains some interesting and fun activities that teach you about science and math; you can make crafts by checking out the step-by-step guide with pictures.

For instance, you can create a pump from a used toothpaste tube, crocodile from a Styrofoam cup or ‘magically’ lift a bottle with the help of a screwdriver — with hundreds of fun things to choose from, it should keep you busy for hours!

The website is simple, the homepage has lots of pictures which are actually the categories such as amazing astronomy, electricity and magnetism, flying toys, math magic, motor and generator, beginner’s biology, paper fun, air and water, fun with pressure and many more, all having many toys related to the category in them. So here is your opportunity to make toys from the trash lying in your room and around your house, and amaze your friends and family with your creativity!
