ask at a school. K teachers usually read The Hungry Caterpillar and use them to "make" caterpillars.
Wow! Surprised they will not recycle!!! If you have a local chicken farm that sells eggs, take to them, they would love to have them!
Here are a ton of fun craft ideas!

I have used them to store earrings and rings. You can use them for painting if you are painting something that takes numerous colors to hold each color in each egg well, you can also use them to store small craft supplies, like beads, findings etc. to keep them from getting mixed together when making a project. The can also do well in the garage for small nails, tacks screws, etc. to keep them separated and organized. When you are putting together or taking apart something, they make a great place to store the little parts so that they don't get lost. I hope this helps you think of a bunch of uses for your egg cartons!
I save mine for friends who have chickens. They always need them. Holding eggs is what they do best!
