6 Crafts & Experiments  
using Recycled Soda Bottles Teachertip 

We know you save every empty shoebox, paper towel roll, and soda bottle just in case the right class project or craft comes along.  So let us help you put those hoarded 2-liter soda bottles to work!   

 

Worm Farm You will need a 2-liter bottle, 16-ounce water bottle (empty), sand, dirt, rocks, worms, tape, and black construction paper. Cut the tops off of the two bottles.  Be sure to save the top of the 2-liter bottle. Put about one inch of rocks with a little dirt in the bottom of the 2-liter bottle, then place the smaller bottle inside the larger bottle, and begin layering sand and dirt around the smaller bottle.  Once you have the dirt filled most of the way to the top, add three to five worms, and tape the 2-liter bottle's lid back on top (remove the cap). Now, you're ready to watch the magic happen. Worms work best in the dark, so cover the bottle with the black construction paper and check back in to see their progress. Encourage students to keep a journal to record what they see and discover.

 

Punctured Plastic Bottle Experiment This experiment demonstrates how air pressure controls the flow of water. To demonstrate this, you will poke a hole near the bottom of a 2-liter bottle, cover the hole with masking tape, and then fill the bottle with water and put the cap on the bottle. Click here to download this experiment and activity from our  Hands-On Experiments books.

 

Painter's Palette Cut the bottoms off of 2-liter bottles and you have the perfect caddy for your little artists' paint. The divots in the bottom of the bottle make the perfect holder for up to four colors of paint. They also clean-up nicely and stack perfectly for easy storage.

 

Hanging Planters Take the left over tops of the 2-liter bottles from the above craft and turn them into hanging planters for your classroom...
