Why

Celebrate birthdays in a big way! Write your greetings with Crayola® Window Markers. What a great surprise!

Steps

1. 1. To help a favorite friend or relative celebrate a birthday, surprise them with a giant-size birthday greeting.
2. 2. Find a window or mirror your friend will notice. Use Crayola Windows Markers to write your Happy Birth-Day greeting.
3. 3. Illustrate the greeting with a drawing just for them. Show something special they'll do that day or about the person. If you draw a birthday cake, include the correct number of candles!
4. 4. If you draw on a window, close the curtains until the morning of your friend's birthday. Open the curtains for a birthday morning surprise!
