Discover a COLOURFUL menagerie of CUTE cardboard animals, all of which can EASILY be crafted by REPURPOSING and RECYCLING the cardboard and egg boxes you have in your bin!

Transform everyday items you might otherwise throw away into fun, imaginative projects for kids. With clear, step-by-step instructions and helpful tips throughout, this eco-friendly crafting book is perfect for sparking creativity while teaching kids about recycling and the wonders of nature.

The animals are organised by five distinct habitats, providing an educational experience as children craft. In the Safari, cardboard tubes become a pride of lions, alongside a zebra, giraffe, rhino and flamingo. Then, explore the Jungle, with playful chimpanzees and orangutans.

In the Snow, a delightful family of penguins made of egg cartons awaits, along with a seal, walrus and polar bear. The Aviary is home to chattering parrots, lovebirds and even a bald eagle. Finally, dive into the Aquarium, where manta rays, stingrays, dolphins, jellyfish and octopuses come to life.

Children can also create enclosures and scenery for their animals, from trees and rocks to icebergs, grass and flowers – transforming their cardboard zoo into a complete, imaginative world.
