Combine the ideas of story sacks and novelty books with pages made of plastic containers.
Resources
Zip 'n' seal bags, a stapler, pieces of thin card, tape
Step by step
* Collect five zip 'n' seal bags and lay them on top of each other the same way round.
* Staple them together on the end opposite the opening.
* Sandwich the pile of bags between two pieces of thin card to make a cover.
* Staple the card and bags together. Then tape over the staples for safety.
* You now have a book the children can use to make up stories or collect items in - try leaflets, tickets, menus, photos and postcards of places the children have been. Add written words or pages on paper if you wish.
