Fun with a Bottle Lid

I started saving bottle lids when Silly Eagle Books posted about her Bottle Cap Bunny and then her Bottle Cap Animals!  It's a good thing because bottle cap/plastic lid fun started popping up everywhere!  We were inspired and had to make some of our own pictures.  I had a fish idea for my son but I instead made it.  He had his own easy but creative idea for a lid that opened to be a clam and he had me draw some fish to keep it company.  My daughter came up with the caterpillar.

That would be a fun creative thinking activity. How many different animals or things can you create from these bottle caps. They can use the bottle caps and draw around them and then choose their favorite to create. Thanks for sharing. Good use for lids from our "junk box."

I think its so funny that you have this posted. We have been recently collecting these kinds of lids to do a little garden craft coming up. Im sure we will have left overs. Now I know what to do with them!
