  1. Collect Rubbish (and wash if needed)
  2. Sort: Place glass and metal in recycling bin. Keep Cardboard boxes and Plastic objects/containers and place them in separate boxes.
  3. Display or stack neatly. A bit like a shop.
  4. Ready to Play:  Take out your plasticine (Clay). Choose and “buy” the material you need. Make out characters, little people, creatures, houses, vehicles…
  5. Play!
  6. Display
  7. Dismantle. When you’ve had enough of your toys, simply dismantle, throw plastic and cardboard into recycling bin and keep your clay for next time.
  8. Start again at 3. or at 1. when you run out of rubbish. The fun never ends!
