Uses for Tissue Paper

As I put away wrapping paper and boxes from Christmas present wrapping, I discovered a wide variety of tissue paper. Some was good enough to save for the next wrapping extravaganza. Other was torn or too crumpled. Of course, my daughter wanted to eat it, but I didn't think that was its best use. So some I'm putting in a large plastic bag to save for shipping materials (great for wrapping breakables or stuffing to fill empty spots in a box). Other pieces I'm going to stuff with torn pieces of wrapping paper into a small old pillowcase (or even a large sock) for my daughter to play with. She loves things that squish and crinkle, so it'll be a great budget-friendly toy!
