Berry Best Award

Why

Kids can creatively convey their heartfelt thanks with this award. It's the "berry best" way to build language and social skills.

Steps

1. With Crayola® Metallic Colored Pencils, draw a strawberry shape on red construction paper. Write (or ask an adult to help you) Berry Best Award at the top.

2. Write why the person you are writing to is special. Draw pictures to go along with your message.

3. Decorate your berry award by adding details and designs with Crayola Glitter Glue.

4. When the glue is dry, use Crayola Scissors to cut out the strawberry. Proudly present your award to that special someone.

Craft items such as scissors, push pins and chenille sticks may have sharp points or edges. Avoid use of materials with sharp points by children younger than 4 years. Read all manufacturers' safety warnings before using arts and craft supplies.

Glitter Glue— WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD—Small parts. Not for children under 3 years. Not for use on skin.
