Afikomen envie!


If you have less time and/or supplies, here's an Afikomen envelope project that you can do with what you have on hand!

What you need:
*large manila envelopes
*crayons and pens
*adhesive of your choice
*scissors (whichever style is age appropriate for your kidlet)
*magazines that kidlest can cut up

scrumdilly-do it:


Lay out your supplies and have your wee ones go on an alphabet treasure hunt! Write out the letters that spell AFIKOMEN on a sheet of paper. Pass out the scissors and magazines and let them have a go at it! 


Once they have cut their letters out they can arrange them on their envelope and glue when ready. They can then add any other razzle dazzle they like. 
Viola! A custom made Afikomen envelope!

The cool thing about this project is utilizing your wee ones hand eye coordination, small motor skills and letter recognition! Don't need to stop at Afikomen. Kidlets can make their very own artists portfolio and hunt out the letters to their name to glue to the front! Kidlets who can recognize letters if not read them can do this also! They will love it and it will give you at least 20 minutes of "you" time! Don't forget to add your pictures to scrumdilly-did!
