January (week 2) - Thank you cards

Our first art and craft session at toddler group in 2013 was to make some Thank you cards.

Finished product - Thank you card

To make these cards you will need:
 - A5 cards (can be bought or make your own by cutting A4 card in to two equal parts and then fold in half)
 - A5 envelopes (bought)
 - Glue
 - Paint
 - Glitter
 - Sharpie pen
 - Thank you message (cut out of A4 paper). Make sure this is written with perminant marker to stop any smudging / running when it is painted

Thank you card prep kit
Steps to make your Thank you card:
1/ Use Sharpie pen to write the full message on the inside of the card (inside)
2/ Use paint to do some hand or feet imprints on the card (front, back and inside)
3/ Paint or glitter the Thank you message
4/ Apply a smear of glue to different parts of the card and sprinkle glitter (front and back)
5/ Glue thank you message to front of card
6/ Leave to dry

 Here is an array of some of the other cards made at toddler group today:
