Fun and Free Green Ideas To Do With the Kids This Summer 

• Homemade baby rattle toy: Use an empty child proof plastic medicine bottle and fill it with pop corn kernels or dried rice and shake, shake, shake.
• Before you recycle your plastic food containers, consider using them in the sand box as toys. Used yogurt containers make great sand castle peaks.
• Use that lint from the dryer. Here are a few ways:

1. Add it to your compost.
2. Create fun crafts. Go to http://www.planetpals.com/dryer_lint_crafts.html for ideas.
3. Helping start a campfire.
