リサイクルに急ごう

The little cardboard truck and bins are surprisingly sturdy—we've played this almost every night since it arrived. Sorting the compost versus paper cards gets the whole family arguing in the best way, and it's genuinely made the kids more careful about what goes in our real kitchen bin.

My kids fight over who gets to sort the compost cards every time we play, which says a lot for a game about trash. The metal, glass, paper, plastic, and compost categories are intuitive enough that my six-year-old picked it up in one round.

The timer really adds a fun sense of urgency — we’re all scrambling to sort the compost before the truck pulls away. My kids argue over who gets to be the recycling captain each round.
