Make It Together: Book Of Letters

07.09.2020 By: Megan James

Make It Together: Book Of Letters

Make your own memory book.

Materials:

3 envelopes 

Paper 

Glue 

Scissors 

A piece of string or ribbon

Directions: 

Glue your envelopes together like a fan or keep them separate and just put them in a pile. (You can use as many as you wish.)

To glue them together, lay them out and glue the flaps of each envelope to the front side of another envelope. You can also just use the sticky part of the envelope. 

If you glued or stuck them together, let them dry.

Cut 3 pieces of paper, one for each envelope. Make sure the pieces are big enough to write or draw on.

On each piece of paper, draw a picture or write a note about what your time at home has been like. Here are 3 idea starters:

1. What I do during the day is…

2. Some things that I like and dislike are…

3. The people I spend time with are…

Put one piece of paper in each envelope.

If you glued or stuck your envelopes together, fold them like a fan. If you did not glue them, you can put them in a pile.

Draw on the front of your book or pile of envelopes. Any side can be the top. Remember to put your name and the date on it.

Tie it closed with string or ribbon.

Save your book to look back on years from now.
