Exploring Our Children’s Potentials

Anya had this art project from school.

She’s to make a doll using a recycled bottle.

Basically, her art teacher asked his class to create a doll, of any kind, using a recycled bottle (those 500 ml ones) as the body, and a pingpong ball as the head.

And this was what Anya made at school, all on her own.

(I particularly liked how she did the hair =)

She basically used :

– A pingpong ball as the head

– A recycled bottle as the body

– Brown wool yarn as the hair (the only closest colour to ‘real hair colour’ that we have =)

– Googly eyes

– Felt (pink and yellow for the inner and outer layer of doll’s dress)

– White felt as the scarf (to cover the otherwise visible ‘bottle neck’)

– Tiny red felt for the mouth

– Tiny beads as doll’s coat decorations

– And, hmmm, I don’t know what you call those frills in English – you know, that piece at the bottom of doll’s inner dress =)

What a cute project, I thought! =D

Hope this post somewhat inspires you to create your own Recycled Bottle Doll too with your little one =)
