Carolyn Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 After distroying the better part of 3 toys, I kept all the reuseable pieces. This is the combination of all 3 put into ONE NEW TOY :laugh: Carolyn & Mika Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvparrots Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 Ahh Carolyn you are so resourceful. The "new" recycled toy looks marvelous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casper Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 That is a really good idea! Between my three we have lots of half destroyed toys and they cost me a fortune each month to replace! Will have to start doing this and will be interesting as well to make new toys. Thanks for the idea Carolyn:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaxtersMom Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 Carolyn, you did a great job on that toy!! I too save all my old destroyed toys and try and use them later. It's a great money saver! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perch Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 I love the idea of making inexpensive toys, re-using, and seeing what works. I too have collected the little parts that fall off or are discarded as the rest of the toy is utterly demolished. If you don't; it really could get way expensive. So far I have learned simple twine knots, braids, and balls are very likeable to Gracie. She like to shread the twine. I have also used old kid-toys like Lego people, dinasaurs, and teething rings. Two whiffle balls as well, but don't tell my kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casper Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Carolyn, I have started saving the safe pieces from the half destroyed toys and placing them in the greys toy buckets they have on their cargo net! They love having a look through and pulling all the bits out. Its as though they have a new set of toys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
