Father's Day Sticker Cards!

Day 1 of the week - The theme this week is Father's Day and Family!
Project: Father's Day Sticker Cards - Connor and my niece Caitlyn drew pictures of "Just" Grandpa, Caitlyn of her dad, and Addie just drew with crayons. Then they cut their pictures out and spread a jello -water mixture on the back to create stickers. When the jello-water mixture was dry they licked the back of their drawings and stuck them onto paper cards. They are going to decorate their cards a little more later. Here are the directions on how to make lick-and-stick paper stickers. Directions: pour 2 Tbs. boiling water over 1 Tbs. Jell-O Powder. Gently stir until powder is completely dissolved. Let cool. Brush Jell-O mixture onto precut pieces of artwork. Let dry until gelatin sets (about 1 hour). Lick the stickers and attach them to cards or anything else. Source: Family Fun Magazine September 2006. Materials Needed: crayons, white paper, scissors, small bowls, flavored Jell-O powder, boiling water, spoon, paintbrush
