Have children work with their families to find one or two shirts or pairs of pants that they can no longer wear. Bring in the clothes and share with the children how the clothes can be recycled and reused as a quilt. Have children trace a square template on the part of the clothing they would like to use for the quilt. Find a family member who can sew to create the class quilt. When the quilt is complete, display to the school that clothing can be reused to help the environment cut down on unnecessary waste. This can be done in small group.
