"This is a quick and easy art project for all ages-indoors or out! Kids naturally pick up shape and color names."

Did you know that you can buy 100% tree-free paper? Not a single tree was cut down to make it! Tree-free paper can be made from plants such as kenaf, hemp, bamboo, cotton, flax, banana stalks, and even something called bagasse, (another word for sugar cane). Tree-free paper can also be made from farmers' leftovers, such as corn stalks and wheat straw.
