Activity Days

I just have to say how much I love my calling!! I am the Acitivity Days leader for the 9-10 yr olds. It really makes me think outside the box. We made the cutest craft that we used for Mothers day.

• Take a can of mandarin oranges and open it from the bottom with a pampered chef can opener. You need the kind of can with the Pop Top lid (This will take the metal off with out leaving the shavings to cut you)
• Dry the can completely and remove paper label
• Cut your scrapbook paper to the desired height (For the cans with 2 layers, I did 2 inches of the top and 1.25 for the bottom. Or about 3 inches for 1 solid sheet)
• Glue the paper around the can using Elmer's or Glue Dots
• Decorate the can with any cut outs you desire
• Tie ribbon around the Pop Top lid
• Fill the can with your desired treat or gift of choice (we put candies and a hand written note from the girls for their mom's)
• After the can is filled and decorated, glue the bottom back on to the can. You can use Elmer's or even a hot glue gun
