Why

Sometimes forget your gym clothes, library books, instrument, or art smock? Rainbow Refrigerator Reminders help you remember!

Steps

1. What special classes, lessons, and appointments do you need to remember? Use these colorful magnets to stay organized!
2. With Crayola Rainbow Twistables®, design reminders for each important event on posterboard. For example, you could draw a sneaker for gym class and a book for library day. Make your reminders large enough to write the name and day. Swirl the bright colors so your magnets can’t be missed!
3. Use Crayola Scissors to cut out your reminders. Cut magnet tape. Attach it to the back of each piece with Crayola School Glue. Air-dry the glue.
4. Post your magnet on the refrigerator, filing cabinet, or wherever you’ll look each day.

Safety Guidelines

Magnets— WARNING: Only use common magnets that have a weak attractive force, for example, magnetic tape or flexible refrigerator magnets. Never use permanent, high-attractive-force magnets, for example, rare earth magnets or magnets used in motors. If the magnet is small, follow the small parts guidance. WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD—Small parts. Not for children under 3 years.

Scissors—ATTENTION: The cutting edges of scissors are sharp and care should be taken whenever cutting or handling. Blunt-tip scissors should be used only by children 4 years and older. Pointed-tip scissors should be used only by children 6 years and older.
