Grandparent Gift Idea
To make this sentimental gift, you’ll need just a few simple art materials.
Start with a picture frame that has a thick matte. I used an 8×10 frame with a matte that brings the photo part down to a 4×6. You can grab this one on amazon.
Give the kids crayons, or colored pencils and let them decorate the matte how they see fit! You can guide them with drawing prompts, or let them choose their own.
My kids loved drawing hearts and smiley faces. The six year old even wrote a sweet note to his great grandmother on it!
When they are done decorating, add your favorite photo of the kids, and put it all together. We were lucky we had just taken family photos on a local mural wall in downtown Houston. We had a fun shot of the kids with a colorful background that matched their drawings perfectly!
We had so much fun working on this project, I think the kids might ask to make more of them for other people that they love!
Do you have any fun sentimental gift ideas for grandparents?
