My friend Dathan told me yesterday that he used to use soft toys – old Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles to be exact – in his bass drum.

Drummers often use pillows to dampened the sound but a drum full of cuddly toys sounds more fun and green :)

Look at this, and create a chair:

you can take the stuffing out and turn it into a puppet.

In my house, older stuffed animal equals dog toy. Just watch for small hard parts that might be swallowed. A kennel may want some too.

Hospitals often taken old teddies for children who are having to stay over.

How about “patching” them up with scraps of fabric, giving them new eyes and donating them.

A number of my stuffed toys have been “adopted” by our two cats, for sleeping next to. :)

We like to recycle lots of things,
icluding teddys and barbies!
