Not So Crafty Momma

Our family loves to travel! This past weekend, we did a fun travel themed activity that encourages creative thinking and language skills.

Materials Used

Construction Paper

Glue

Magazine Clippings

Scissors

Something To Draw With

I started by drawing a rounded rectangle on the construction paper. I also drew two handle shapes. I helped my daughter cut all three things out.

After the shapes were cut, we folded the rectangle in half and then glued the handle shapes onto the sides.

While we waited for the glue to dry, we talked about where we could go on a pretend trip and what we should pack. My preschooler decided that we should pack from a camping trip. I had her pick pictures from a pile of magazine clippings. Before she glued on each picture, she told me what it was and why she needed to pack it.
