Preschool Crafts Christmas

Creative or crafty Ideas for empty formula cans?

We go through a lot of the 12 oz formula cans each month (like small tin coffee cans). Instead of just tossing them or putting them out for recycling, I'm saving them and looking for some creative or CRAFTY uses. I organize a preschool playgroup with 0-5 year olds and parents and was trying to think of how I could use these for a craft project. Otherwise, how could I make them into something for Christmas presents for friends/family - fill them with something cute and somehow decorate the outsides or something?? There is also an aboundance of the plastic little scoops that come with each can as well which could somehow be incorporated...Are anyone's else's wheels turning enough to share some creative ideas with me?! Thanks in advance!

oh wow how fun. Lets see. the kids could use the scoops as shovels and let them put potting soil in a decorated can to plant something in them for their family. use could use a decorated can to keep the classroom organized. like on for colors and markers or glue sticks. you could also give each kid one to save coins to donate to charity. or decorated can for the kids with goodies for like holiday parties.
