Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What used to come into most homes daily that could easily be recycled as wrapping paper?

Answer: newspaper

Newspapers are usually recycled, this is just another means to do so. They can be classy with the black and white pages augmented with a black ribbon. Or they can be more colorful if you use the Sunday comic section. Old maps can also be used as a colorful wrap.

2. My gift for the next party will be a fancy dress shirt. What kitchen storage item could I modify to create a shirt box from recycled material?

Answer: cereal box

Cereal boxes can be used as they are, or they can be cut down. If you want to use your own decoration, they can be used inside out and painted, stamped or colored.

3. One unique way to wrap a gift and involve a child's natural creativity might be to wrap with which of these items that could be made for the occasion or perhaps found on the refrigerator door?

Answer: children's artwork

Children often use colors very creatively and the drawings could be easily reused as a wrapping paper - just tell your child what you want it for!

4. I've been invited to a Bridal Shower and I want to give a gift of several small kitchen tools. Which of these items might be appropriate to wrap them and preserve a kitchen theme?

Answer: decorative kitchen towel

This is one of the many ways to wrap a gift in a gift. The person receiving the gift now gets more presents and no wrapping paper to trash.

5. There's to be a party at our dojo to celebrate all those achieving black belt status. What traditional Japanese wrapping could I use?

Answer: furoshiki

Furoshiki has been utilized in Japan since the 1300s. The original purpose was to provide a way to wrap items for individuals to transport.

6. If the definition of the term "regifting" means to give away unwanted gifts rather than disposing of them, is this, by the majority of US society, considered an acceptable "green gift"?

Answer: Yes, if the gift has not been used.

This one might be a little more contentious as it depends a great deal on one's social mores. However it has become more widespread and, indeed, a "National Regifting Day" has been defined as December 18 in the US.

7. I'm planning to give a fragile gift to a good friend, but it needs to be packed safely. Which of these recycled items can I recycle again to use as packing?

Answer: waste from the paper shredder

If you shred your paperwork instead of simply recycling it, this can easily be used as packing material--even for items shipped long distances.

8. This time I'm going to take advantage of another trend and wrap my gift in something easily found in a grocery store. Can you identify which item I've used?

Answer: reusable grocery bag

Reusable grocery bags come in many designs and colors. Some stores sell them for $0.99 and then give a rebate to customers who use them. These bags can also be made more personal by painting on them, adding appliques, or perhaps adding pictures from old greeting cards.

9. I've decided to make up batches of a dried tomato, lentil and pasta homemade soup. What type of container could I package these in and show off the beautiful ingredients?

Answer: mason jar

If you are packing food, you should use sterilized food-grade jars. Even if you're not packing food, all types of resealable jars can be excellent containers. A homemade label could become a treasured keepsake.

10. I'm giving a few small gifts to a collector of woven containers. Which of these might I pack as an addition to their collection?

Answer: basket

Baskets can be used to pack one or several items. These can be fun to pack with a theme, e.g., breakfast, a picnic lunch for two, baby items, etc.
