Things I Love!

A “Keepsake” Activity for ALL AGES!

In the center of a piece of cardstock or fancy scrapbooking paper, decoratively write “ One Hundred Things I LIke”.

In a graffiti-style fashion, highlight simple things that you love. Take a nice pen and let your heart be your guide. (Hint: Mom and Dad can do this too!) Decorate your paper creatively with single words or short phrases that bring a smile to your face. Maybe you love the smell of maple syrup in the morning, the sound of rain on your roof or having a Friday night movie fest with your family!

This is a very enlightening project - one that you can tuck away in a keepsake box or hang on the fridge. You will enjoy remembering special moments each time you see it. Others will love getting to know you too as they read it.

An extension of this activity is to do the same graffiti-style journaling on a white photo frame matte and gift it with a special picture inside. The theme could be “Things I Love About You!”. How about decorating blank note cards to send to loved ones? “Reasons You Deserve a Happy Birthday!” for example.
