In reply to Nancy. We actually use several different brands, Nancy. I keep a bowl of ice water (with ice cubes in it) nearby in case the children accidentally touch the tip or get glue on their fingers.

What brand of glue gun did you use – my granddaughter received a 2nd degree burn on her hand from what was supposed to be a low temp gun & I’m trying to find one that has actually been used by younger children. Thank you.

In reply to Sue Lively. Thanks Sue! I love that your son is already turning to the recycle bin for craft supplies! A boy after my own heart. :)

I love this idea Jackie! My son loves making things out of recyclable to the extent that I can barely recycle anything without him taking it out of the blue bin and saying, “Let’s make something out of this Mommy!” Thanks for a fun idea! We like using glue guns too at our house – you can just make things with it that you can’t do with white glue and the wow factor is there quickly too.

If you’re worried about using Styrofoam trays from meat packaging, just use the Styrofoam trays from produce, many fruits & vegetables are packaged on these trays & there is no concerns of bacteria from meat.

Would regular Elmer’s glue work?

Never thought about painting meat trays before! Gorgeous project ideas. Now may stalk our meat dept. people to ask for some unused ones, lol. With baby in the house do not want to have any extra germs around:) Thanks for linking up to the Thoughtful Spot Blog Hop. Hope to see you next week!
