What you'll need
- Pebbles (smooth, flat)
- Acrylic paint
- Lolly sticks
- PVA glue
- Small photograph
- Card for coupon book
How to do it
- PEBBLE PAPERWEIGHT: clean and dry a smooth stone. Paint white as base coat. When dry, add a design: a face, geometric pattern, sports ball. Varnish.
- LOLLY STICK PHOTO FRAME: arrange 4 lolly sticks in a square. Glue the joints. Add a second layer for depth. Paint or decorate. Attach a photo with glue. Add a magnetic strip to the back.
- COUPON BOOK: fold and staple 5 pieces of card. Each 'coupon' offers something: a hug, helping tidy, choosing the film. Decorate the cover.
💡 Tips
Same sensitivity as Mother's Day — 'for the special adult who takes care of you'. The coupon book works at all ages and requires minimal materials.
