While Christmas morning has come and gone, there’s no doubt that many kids across America are feeling flush with cash as a result of the holiday; and there’s a great, fun toy put out by Bill Nye that’s aimed at helping kids understand the process of recycling paper that the young, eco-conscious consumer in your house may be interested in.
Put together with the idea of combining the work of recycling paper with the fun of creating their own projects with the results of it, there’s certainly room for your kid to learn about the three R’s of smart environmental stewardship while creating notepads, cards, and tons of other cool crafts at the same time.

Kids take after adults, and that is a fact. Kid's mind is like a sponge and whatever they learn in their childhood is carried out up until their adult years so the earliest we can teach them, the better. Maybe instilling their minds the importance of eco-friendly living will make a big change in how they will live their lives in the future.
What would be way cooler is for Nye to show kids how to build their own 'paper recycler" with crap they already have at home. It's easy to do with a blender, a screen from an old window and some cardboard paper. You can collect flowers and things from the yard and presto visto a paper recycling machine without the plastic.
