What recycled object are Blue Peter badges made from?
Ever wondered how the iconic Blue Peter badge is made? Well, you’re in luck, follow Joel on a behind-the-scenes tour of the factory where they are created! Each badge is made with as little waste as possible and then hand-finished with a pin. And just wait until you find out which recycled household item they are made from… you won’t believe it!
