DawnM Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 There are some activities we are planning (well, I have planned) for later in the year. One is a homeschool ski day or two later in the winter. Another is passes to a local theme park. I have not actually purchased these yet as I can't until the dates get closer. How would you wrap these up? Are there any websites with nice make it yourself passes to something I could print on card stock? Thank you!, Dawn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrg Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 We sent little homemade Lego kits representing the gifts. The recipient builds the kit and then reads a certificate describing the real gift. These were a bit hit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawnM Posted December 24, 2011 Author Share Posted December 24, 2011 Well, it is WAY too late for that! I need something I can draw or print out or make in a hurry.

AlmiraGulch Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 Could you just print pictures of the places you're going? Or, if you want to make it more interesting, print pictures of stuff and make collages that will tell them what it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kathleen in LV Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 Another option is to make a word puzzle for the recipient to solve to see where he/she is going. Depending on the age, you could make a simple code or do a word jumble. Then just print it out (or heck, you can even handwrite it if time is an issue), and put it in an envelope, wrap it in a box, or throw it in a gift bag.

DawnM Posted December 24, 2011 Author Share Posted December 24, 2011 Thank you. I ended up taking a heavy duty file folder (used for DH's work, fairly heavy) and cutting it into squares. Then I cut out letters from a magazine. The theme park one I just put the pieces in a cup from that theme park to wrap it in. The other I have in 6 squares and will let each child open an envelope of 2 letters. They will then have to figure it out when they all open their letters! :D Dawn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
