Homemade wax and seal for letter writing
Here is another great crayon idea.
My daughter like to write letters to her friends. To create an old fashion seal for your childs letters use the following idea.
- take your old crayons and peel all the paper off.
- with adult help, put the end of the crayon into the flame of a candle.
- After the crayon is soft smear a small amount over the opening of your letter.
- Press with a stamp to create the seal.
Ideas for homemade stamps.
- A penny or other coin
- An old ring from costume jewlery
- Rocks
- End of a lipstick tube (they usualy have a design on them)
- Or anything else you can imagine to use.
Writing letters is a great and fun way to work on your grammar skills too!
