CANADA POSTCARDS

There’s two things I really, really love here:

1. CANADA (obviously!)

2. A WASHI TAPE BORDER!!!

What more could a creative person ask for?

Spread some love this Canada Day with these easy peasy Canada Postcards!

WHAT YOU NEED:

• washi tape

• water color paint

• thick cardstock or paper (we used recipe cards!)

• Canada stickers

• pen/pencil

HOW TO MAKE:

1. Add washi tape to all four edges of your paper, creating a border.

2. Paint inside the washi tape border using water colour paint.

3. Allow paint to dry.

4. Remove the washi tape to expose a classy white border.

5. Add Canada stickers as desired.

6. Write a little note on the backside and send it to a friend in the mail!

ACTIVITY EXTENSION:

• This is the perfect penpal activity! Teach your penpal something about Canada that you find interesting! Send it away in the mail to make their day

CONNECTION STARTERS:

• Have you ever received a postcard?

• If you could receive a postcard from any other country, which country would you choose?

• What are some interesting facts about Canada that we could write on the backside of our postcard?

• How do you think a postcard gets from us to someone else?

THINGS TO CELEBRATE & ENCOURAGE:

• Applying and removing tape

• Applying stickers independently

• Letter or word formation while writing a message

• Pencil grip!

When we return to Kuwait, we hope to do the same thing – Kuwait style!!!

Happy connecting, dear friends!

XOXO,
