Eco Craft Fun For Kids With EnviroBlox

EnviroBLOX are little puffy, coloured, corn starch blocks that stick to each other or paper, just by damping them with a touch of water.

My kids and I  had a ball playing with them, creating, eco-friendly, mess-free, flowers & puppies, (see image).  We love the fact that EnviroBLOX are completely biodegradable and safe due to the fact that they are made from 100% natural corn starch and food colourings only.

There are no toxic glues or paints needed. We just wet a sponge with some water and then very lightly moistened the ends that we wanted to stick together, (we were quick to learn that you only need a touch of moisture, as too much and these little blocks completely dissolve). You can also easily cut them into whatever shapes you wish before sticking them together.

You can choose to create 3D figurines, or try drawing the outline of a picture onto paper and then get your children to fill in the picture by sticking EnviroBLOX onto the paper, instead of colouring in the traditional way with pencils or crayons.

EnviroBLOX stimulate your imagination as the limit to what you can choose to create and decorate is endless and they are great for getting little and also big fingers practicing their fine motor skills.
