Happy Birthday From The Class

Here's a gift idea from friends in class to the birthday student!  This class-made book will become a treasured keepsake for each birthday child. 

1. On a child's birthday, give each youngster a sheet of paper and have him/her draw the birthday friend. 
2. Then write or dictate at least one thing s/he likes about the birthday friend. 
3. Have students make and decorate a cover page with "Happy Birthday To (birthday friend)" 
4. Stack all the pages behind the cover and staple it along the left side to make a booklet. 
5. Present the book to the birthday child and have her take it home to share with her family.
6. Sweet!

Thanks for the idea, The Mailbox!
