Have Your Friends / Family Write What they Love About You and Seal it Until Valentines Day
This idea is for a special 'Book of Love' to seal up until Valentines Day when you are able to open it and find out why your friends and family care about you. It is a great book to give you 'good feelings of love' on Valentines Day. You can have fun and more fun with a book of Love secrets. First of all buy a dollar store notebook. Lay it on a table before you. Lift up the lower edge of the first page and fold it up along the place where the notebook is stitched together as in Fig. I . Do the same with the upper edge of the page. This double folding brings the page to a point. Repeat the folding process with each page in the notebook. When the folding has been completed, cut down the covers of the notebook with a pair of sharp scissors. This will change your rectangular notebook into one of a triangular shape as in Fig. 2. You are now ready to ask your friends and family to write in the book of Love Secrets. Pass this book around to your friends at school ... making sure to write instructions on the first page. Every body should write down what they 'like' about you or what makes you so special...etc.. To do this each one unfolds a page, writes a message inside, refolds the page, seals it with a pretty sticker or seal as in Fig. 3. A book of secrets makes for a fun New Years Craft.
