What a load of rubbish!

This week, we've proved you really can make something from nothing. While reading Malala's Magic Pencil, we discovered that some children were fishing around on rubbish dumps to find materials which they could sell, so we decided to see if we could turn a pile of rubbish into something brand new.

So we set about designing toys made entirely from rubbish. 

What creative ideas we had! From guitars to dolly carriers, rockets to dolls beds and even a few marble mazes. 

And all of this made entirely out of rubbish and recycling. 

Finally, we painted our designs to see if we could pass them off as brand new toys instead of items made from recycled objects. Do you think we managed it?
