These kinds of projects are a testament to the value of having all kids of craft and construction supplies on hand. The base of the creations was the cardstock from this project. Then the kids used left-over craft supplies from some other DonorsChoose projects to really make their creations special and unique. Pipe cleaners, beads, and sticks to added trees to their cities.
