There’s two things I really, really love here:
CANADA (obviously!)
A WASHI TAPE BORDER!!!
What more could a creative person ask for?
Spread some love this Canada Day with these easy peasy Canada Postcards!
WHAT YOU NEED:
washi tape
water color paint
thick cardstock or paper (we used recipe cards!)
Canada stickers
pen/pencil
HOW TO MAKE:
Add washi tape to all four edges of your paper, creating a border.
Paint inside the washi tape border using water colour paint.
Allow paint to dry.
Remove the washi tape to expose a classy white border.
Add Canada stickers as desired.
Write a little note on the backside and send it to a friend in the mail!
ACTIVITY EXTENSION:
This is the perfect penpal activity! Teach your penpal something about Canada that you find interesting! Send it away in the mail to make their day
CONNECTION STARTERS:
Have you ever received a postcard?
If you could receive a postcard from any other country, which country would you choose?
What are some interesting facts about Canada that we could write on the backside of our postcard?
How do you think a postcard gets from us to someone else?
THINGS TO CELEBRATE & ENCOURAGE:
Applying and removing tape
Applying stickers independently
Letter or word formation while writing a message
Pencil grip!
When we return to Kuwait, we hope to do the same thing – Kuwait style!!!
Happy connecting, dear friends!
XOXO,
Lindsay
