Marker Storage! with the flat sqarish ones, take the lids off of baby wipe container. Pour plaster of paris into the container, before this sets place marker lids (holes facing up) into the plaster of paris. Let it dry. Place markers into their lids. Now preschoolers wont loose the lids to markers (they will just lose the markers instead!) I used this in preschool classrooms and it was great!

RE: Uses for Empty Babywipe Containers
I used to work for a local preschool as a helper in their kitchen. The school used the wet wipes in the round container. After the containers were empty, they and the lids were washed and dried.
The cook would then fill the container with any leftover spaghetti or other leftovers to be stored in the freezer. It is easy to label the leftovers with a Sharpie Marker.

RE: Uses for Empty Babywipe Containers
Now I reuse the one that came in a gift pack for my youngest (I've used it for 15 months.....that is a lot of wipes!) But when my older one was born, I bought Baby Magic wipes, because I trust their formula, and the box looks like blocks, so we bought the containers and by the time he was walking, had enough blocks to build a fort! We played with them for a long time until we had to move.....then some were used for organizing.

RE: Uses for Empty Babywipe Containers
I used mine as a holder for dryer sheets (the carboard boxes "leak" the scent) and a mini baby kit (pacifier, baby thermometer, nose syringe, fingernail clippers, etc) for a baby shower gift.

I have used these to put travel toys in!! Works great when traveling and its small!! Holds plenty of crayons/markers or just small toys such as hotwheel cars!! And its easy for little ones to get to while traveling
And since we go camping----I've used them for emergancy kits, make up my own rather than buying a fancy one!

RE: Uses for Empty Babywipe Containers
I use them to cover my electric outlets used for plugging my appliances, My grandson tried to reach the plugs that is used for the refrigarater. I covered the outlet with the empty container, I put 2 screws on the top and bottom of container to attatch it to the wall. It really worked for me, My grandson hasn't been near the outlet again.

Diaper Wipes Containers
Have a toddler, know someone that does? If you can get them, save the tubs that diaper wipes come in. They make excellent containers for all types of things - even jewelry!

Drawer sorters & Play table
I use them for the obvious ones - storing toys for car trips, tools in the trunks so they don't move all over the place. But I also remove the tops and use them in all of our dresser "underware" drawers to seperate undies, socks, longjohns, etc. And my husband made a play table for my daughter out of them. All you need is a glue gun and some patience. He glued the four legs together and the top he glue seperately on the ground with one box over what was needed. So that he only had to glue the perimeter of the securing edges in order to stabilize it. She adores it. Each outer corner he made with the opening side up, to store crayons, legos and such in. Good luck.

RE: Uses for Empty Babywipe Containers
For the round (cylindrical) containers with the hole top center--use them to hold your yarn ball/skein while knitting or crocheting. Feed the yarn through the top--keeps it from rolling away!
This would also work with the pop-up style rectangular boxes.

Uses For Old Baby Wipe Containers
1. Give them to you child's teacher. When I was teaching first grade I used them for everything!
2. Use them to pack up gifts for soldiers overseas. They are the perfect size and sturdy enough to make it there. They can use them to send things back, keep them, pass them on, or toss them.
3. Use them to store extra grocery bags wherever you need some-in the car, the babies room, the kitchen, etc.
4. Keep the covers on them and let you toddler use them as building blocks.. Extra bonus you can teach them to put things away by filling them up-an activity that they love anyway!

RE: Uses for Empty Babywipe Containers
I used to use mine to keep small toys for the kids when they were very young to help keep them entertained when we wold go on trips to the mall or anywhere else. Also you could remove the lid and plant herb plants in them.

RE: Uses for Empty Babywipe Containers
I make babywipes! Use BOUNTY paper towels cut in half with electric knife. (other brands turn to mush) Fold to fit container. Boil 3 cups water-add 2T. baby oil and 2T. baby wash OR baby shampoo, pour over wipes until soaked through. This recipe makes enough solution for one half roll of paper towels.

Uses For Baby Wipe Containers
Take lid off, use container for small toys, books, crayons, puzzle and game pieces, sewing stuff-scissors, needles and thread, washing the baby down quickly, or for cleaning water for small job, storing extras in the bathroom-toothpaste, bars of soap or for storing lids to containers. I uses these containers everywhere. It saves a lot of money rather than buying containers. If you want to stack--leave lid on. You can also label or decorate outside.

RE: Uses for Empty Babywipe Containers
I use empty baby wipe containers in the bathroom to store cotton balls, Q-tips, bandaids, shampoo, conditioner samples, and the list goes on. You can take the label off or cover and decorate them. They make nice jewelry boxes when covered to store earrings, bracelets, hair clips etc. They are great in the laundry room too for small items like dryer sheets and stain sticks. Also if covered nicely use in your office for paper clips, coupons and the list goes on! I am sure you can think of a few of your own. Just thought of another one in fact, make a mini first aid kit for the car. Include bandaids, first aid ointment, etc.
