As I watched colleagues at work arrange the handcrafted toys in a cupboard, made from the cardboard boxes we have gathered over time, I felt that the initiative of Rainu and Shantha is a message for all of us. Everything which gets in to the trash need not be a waste. Some are redeemable and recyclable.
Three cheers to Rainu, Shantha, Femy and Femine!
It is this which has been widely used during the on line Developmental support of children. Parents by seeing the handcrafted toys get an idea they can do this at home instead of having to rush to a shop to buy toys!
We shall have a permanent exhibition of these items in the Family Resource Room for parents to get familiar with the variety of toys they can make at home.
