Repurposing puzzle pieces

I am all about re-using educational materials for other uses once my kiddos have outgrown them. We used our letter puzzle (which she's now mastered) to make a new activity. She helped me find the letters of family member's names....I traced them on sentence strips. I placed all the letters from the names and the name strips on her work shelf and she can now match the letters to the names by setting them on top of the corresponding letter. Luckily I had two letter puzzles--because many names have repeated letters!

Take a look at some of your outgrown toys/materials...how can you repurpose them into something your children can use again? It's fun!
