MADE IN USA For Ages 6-9 years "Scrapkins was an exciting way for our students to actually experience the benefits of recycling while also using their imaginations to create the most wonderful art projects! Our students looked forward to art with Mr. Yanish and were highly invested in the artistic process. The Scrapkins program connects well with our first grade curriculum and gave our students another outlet to express themselves at school. It was wonderful to see the looks of pride and accomplishment as all of our students successfully completed a project."
