Compliment Jar--Kid'S Style

• 3 sheets paper, 3 different colors of construction paper
• glue
• 18 inches ribbon (optional)
• 1 pencil
• 1 pen

1. Start by thinking of at least 20 nice things about your mom. Compliments are things you might say like, "You're so pretty," "You're so smart - especially at homework time" or "You're always there when I need you." "Your cookies are the best on earth" "I love it when you sing with me".
2. Cut strips of construction paper about 1 inch wide and 6 inches long.
3. Write a compliment on each strip in pen.
4. Take the strip and wrap it tightly around the pencil.
5. When you slide the paper off the pencil it should stay in a curl.
6. Put the curls into the jar.
7. Mix up the colors so they look festive.
8. If you have a photo of yourself, you can paste it on top of the jar lid. If not, draw a picture of mom with a big smile.
9. Screw on the lid and tie a ribbon around the neck of the jar.
