You are lucky to live with your family. Some people folks aren’t so lucky. How about sharing some love through the mail? What a great occasion to showcase your artistic talents!
We recommend choosing different persons. Of course, grand-dad and grand-mom are on the top of the list, but don’t forget other family members or friends.
You could also call to a Senior Center and ask if they can think of residents that would like to receive correspondence. I bet they would be happy to receive a nice letter from you.
If the children are too small to write a letter themselves, you can ask them what they want to communicate and write it for them. Also, remind them it is possible to communicate using drawing or collage.
Not sure what to write about? Here are a few ideas :
Once you have decided on the message you want to share and the way you want to share it (letter, drawing, card, etc.), it’s time to mail it!
We invite you to document the family activities in your journal in the form of a drawing, a collage, a story, a poem or even by pasting objects related to this activity directly in your diary.
Keep a space to write these questions related to the activity of the day. These questions will help the creation of a discussion around this activity.
