You need
- paper
- crayons, pens or pencils
Steps
- 1. Who could we make happy today? A grandparent, a neighbour, a friend?
- 2. Fold the paper in half to make a card.
- 3. Draw a picture for them on the front.
- 4. The grown-up writes the words your child says inside. Give it or post it.
⚠ Safety · Stay nearby
Nothing to watch for.
Stop if:
- Your child wants to keep it — that is fine too
Easier
Scribbles and a hand print are a lovely card.
Harder
Your child copies their own name onto the card.
Only 5 minutes?
Draw one thing on the front.
Why it matters: Making something for someone else grows kindness and thinking about others.
Clean-up: Crayons back in the box.
