I didn’t know you could still get Blue Peter badges . I remember how much I really wanted one as a kid . I would send in my art work etc , lol. Thanks for sharing
St3v3cunn1961 Did you finally get one after sending your artwork in? my son got one but I can't remember what for now (it was a long time ago).
tumblespots no unfortunately I didn’t get one . I used to love the show though . Making the stuff they made using household items . Except our house never had double sided tape ????? Lol My mum would roll the sticky tape in a circle sticking the two ends together so I had double sided sticky tape . lol . I’m sure Blue Peter would be proud of her efforts.
I remember when I was a kid 
I really wanted a badge too!! 
Ah the memories were nice!
kitty88uk There are many of us on here who remember the old days of 'Here's one I made earlier' and 'It's Friday, it's 5 to 5 and it's Crackjack' etc. It's memories like these that make us smile 
tumblespots I’ve never heard of them phrases before lol or I have bad memory lol
