3. Paint letters with textile paints.

4. For back, cut a piece of print material same size as finished front.

5. Sew three sides together and stuff with fiberfill.

6. Close opening with blind stitch.

Answer 2

Well, this is something you would have had to prepare for...so maybe for next year's class.

This past year I put each child's pics on an individual CD for the family.  They LOVED it!  I was planning on making a photo album for them and ran out of time and to be truthful...I'll do the CD route again!  They can do what they want with the pics.  (I have a digital camera that gets a LOT of use.)

Answer 3

Um well you could make little cards like take a picture with every single one fo them and put ti in the card write somethig about them

Answer 4

maybe make a CD with slide show of all your memorable experience or just treat them I'm sure they will enjoy it

Answer 5

Boys love to collect things why not start a notebook for them to place things into, use the plastic page covers of baseball card holders.

Girls at this age have bows, and hair ribbons by the hundreds, make something for them to keep them.

Answer 6

There are many interesting ideas here. I would just add the idea of making a little memory book. If you have photos from throughout the year add them to a handmade book. Have the kids make hand and foot prints and date them and add that to the book. List their interests that they had this year and their special talents or funny anecdotes about them.  Make sure to include photos of you and any assistants. This is a great keepsake both for the child and the parents of their early experiences in your class.
