What you need

A full sheet of paper and large child-appropriate crayons.

Age: 3–5 years; choose for the individual child.

Let's make it happen

  1. Fold the paper in half to make a card. Invite your child to choose a person and draw a favorite shared moment on the front.
  2. Inside, add a picture or marks about something that person did. If your child wants words, write their message as they say it.
  3. Look at the card together and decide whether and how to give it to the person.

Adult stays beside the child and collects torn paper. Let the child choose whether to share the card.
