Recycling Wipe Containers

I buy the big box of wipes at Sams and I get a new wipe container in every box. I always refill the old containers and the new ones are beginning to pile up in the closet. I was wondering if anyone has a creative use for them.

Thanks in advance.

I usually have 3 or 4 in the house with wipes... after that - we put crayons in them, also little balls that I have to keep away from the babies - I have the older kids keep them in there. Scissors, snacks, just about anything. I love them. We take one on the road and since you can put your hand in it, it makes for a great snack holder that your child can control, but not spill quite so easily. Of course, we wash it several times first! lol Have fun and enjoy coming up with some new uses! You could also teach colors by have one for each color and putting things of that color in it!

I use them to keep small toys together, like trains, cars, crayons, and other small items. I also have seen them used for putting your plastic grocery bags in them and pulling them out like kleenexes. If they are younger then you can use them as a game for putting things in like container play.

I love those containers from Sam's! :) I once worked for a preschool program, and one thing I learned is to rotate toys. If a kid can play with his cars, crayons, plastic animals, etc, all at once, you may end up with a big mess and a bored kid. So, I use the containers for all my daughter's small toys. I label the boxes on the short side, so I can stack 'em up and pull them as needed. The boxes are great for markers, stamps, stickers, chalk, farm animals--you get the picture. :)

I use them all over. One has flashcards in it. One has crayons. I even put my makeup in one, keeps it all nice and neat and together. There are still some under the sink for whenever I need them.
