Instructions for Seasonal Placemat

Instructions for Seasonal Placemat

Give your child a placemat, scissors & glue. Invite him/her to cut the patterned papers into several pieces. Show them how to create a collage on their placemat by gluing the scraps to it.

Place a photo of the child, or other photo, in the middle of the placemat. Invite your child to decorate teh placemat with paint prints, crayons or markers, and collage items. Cover the placemat with clear contact paper or laminate it. Encourage your child to give the placemat as a gift to someone special or to use it themselves throughout the holiday season.
