In reply to Jill. Oh yes - try bunching them in the middle and using a pipe cleaners to turn them into butterflies!

Any ideas on crafts or art projects we could do with all of those used filters?

In reply to Miriam. They are so inexpensive. You can easily pick up a pack of 100 or so for $1.00.

Geez, you are such an amazing, super inspiring, genius, smart and talented teacher/mom/blogger. I simply envy your ability to turn almost every book into an activity! In fact, I use your books & activities library/archives, for searching for age appropriate books for my youngest! That’s in top of everything else we use them for. We are so grateful for the dedicated time you put into your blog.

I am going to adapt this fantastic idea for a preschool sign in. I plan to write each child’s name ( each letter in different color marker) on coffee filters, then cut the letter squares apart. I will put these -spread out on a tray. When the children come in, they have to find the letter squares to make their name, and move them to a second tray, and put them in order. When they have correctly done this, they will say some magic words, and dip a dropper in a bowl of water and drip it on the letters to “disappear” their name. Try “alazam, alakazeer, today I will make my name disappear!”
