Most days I am sending kiddys home with plastic bags full of paintings or arts and crafts they have done during the day.
I got to thinking I am not being very kind to the environment etc etc so was wondering what do you ladies do?
Most of the children arrive with a bag with food in, spare clothes in etc but sometimes its not big enough for extra stuff iyswim.
What do you think?

You could start with having cloth bags for children to use when they come to you.

I have large plastic envelope folders that come and go with them with the art work etc in it. I do have good parents though who always send everything back

As i always take a hessien bag with me ( or like )i dont have any or maybe a couple of carrier bags in the house. so i usually just put art work in their bags they bring or they hold them to the car (they all drive to mine).Would like to be more green, Eco nappy bags /wipes etc any other suggestions?

The Childminding Shop (TCS advert at bottom of page) sells cotton tote bags for £1.49. Could be decorated to bring backwards and forwards to your house. Or printed with 'property of.....' to make sure they come back :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:
