Re-T-me!

Poloppo is always looking for ways to encourage children's natural creativity, so we were pretty excited when we created the reusable packaging for our T-me design-your-own-t-shirt kit. It's a sturdy piece of cardboard shaped like a t-shirt, which kids can easily recycle into an easel-style picture frame.

We're even more excited that some of our creative young customers came up with ideas for reusing T-me packaging that we hadn't even thought of.

Piper from Kansas made her T-me kit into a laptop using colored Sharpies. Nico from California made his T-me kit into a tunnel for his wooden trains.

We put our heads together and thought of a few more ways you can reuse you T-me kit:

- Add a binder clip or two, and you have a portfolio to carry your drawings in
- Put it on the floor upside-down as a hurdle to jump over
- Fold the t-shirt arms halfway in and staple them to each other to make a funny hat
- Open it all the way up to make butterfly wings
- Glue on sequins or add jewel stickers to make a handbag

At Poloppo, we think the power of creativity can change the world. And changing a t-shirt shaped cardboard into a unique work of art is as good a place to start as any. If you come up with a creative use for your T-me package, send us a picture! We'll send you a free T-me kit to show our appreciation.
