Recycling Tips for Kids pg 1 Recycling glass: It is important not to recycle broken glass. Only glass that is unbroken and clear should be recycled. Because it is very difficult to process and sort, broken glass, ceramic pieces and other sharp objects are not suitable for recycling. Besides, it is rather dangerous, especially for kids, to be handling glass that is broken. Newspaper: If you have old and moldy newspaper, you should not recycle it. You should only recycle dry and clean newspaper.

Recycling Tips for Kids pg 2 Aluminum and metal objects: Most aluminum cans and other types of metal can be recycled. You should still clean them first, before you recycle them. Magnetic metals cannot be recycled. Please do not recycle them, if your metal objects are covered with hazardous materials. You can actually cause physical harm to other people if you expose them to these hazardous materials. Plastic: You may not know this, but not all plastics are the same. In fact, there are many grades of plastics. For example, plastics with number 1 and 2 recycling symbols are high quality plastic and happen to be great candidates for recycling. Plastics that are marked with numbers from 3 to 8 are not good for recycling and should not be put in with your other materials to recycle. What happens if you mix the grades of plastic? Well, many low quality plastics could cause the high quality plastics to become contaminated, which is why you should sort them out before recycling.
