I keep a stack of trash buckets on the shelf,
and whenever we work on an activity that requires cutting,

The kiddos know where they are,
and the table helpers for that particular week grab the bowls.
I love an easy solution!

You can buy a popcorn bowl from DOLLAR TREE like I did.
Much cheaper and very colorful!

Just paper. That's it!

Take a look at the little bit of floor you can see.
No Paper! Hallelujah!!

One more thing: Having garbage bowls around comes in handy
