This is a tradition that will give your child a history of their life
Each year on or near your child's birthday, tape or glue a penny with that year's date on a card or a piece of paper.
On the dated card, write a short
letter to your child including
Things they have accomplished, things they have taught you, pet's names, teacher's names,something they made for you,things they struggled with,favorite activities or foods, friends for that year, funny things they have done, etc The list goes on and on.
Give the penny card to your child on his birthday and than put it in his memory box for safe keeping.
I love doing this activity for the kids. It is soo much fun to look back upon, and to see how much they have changed through the years. This is one of our family traditions that my mother started for us kids.
Hope you have fun doing this!!!
