Egg Carton Cross Craft
Save your cartons after coloring your eggs and show the kids how to make a pretty Egg Carton Cross. Egg carton crafts are great for teaching children about recycling and make a wonderful craft material.
Trivia:
The egg carton was invented in 1911 by newspaper editor Joseph Coyle of Smithers, British Columbia, to solve a dispute between a local farmer and hotel owner in Aldermere in British Columbia, over the farmer’s eggs often being delivered broken.
