There are so many ways you can use up your fabric scraps. For younger children lots of fun can be had cutting and sticking. Why not print off a simple outline of their favorite animal and then let them fill it in with pieces of fabric? If you have some card at home you could also cut out a mask shape which can then be decorated. Any larger pieces going spare in your stash could be used to make a matching cape so they can play super heroes. Perhaps you are planning on using this time at home to teach your children a new skill like sewing. Small scraps are fantastic for patchwork, applique or even making dolly clothes. Let your imaginations run wild and most of all have fun!
