Great Wall Of Friendship
Tie this craft and activity in to your China or "Great Wall of China"
theme if you like. It is designed to get your child thinking about his friends
(and possibly his family), what qualities he values in them, and how they
support him in his life. Make the building bricks shown above, or try the poster
version illustrated below. This makes a great classroom or group project, too.
You will need:
Our friendship cards
Mini cereal boxes
coloured paper or paint
Glue
Friendship cards
Friendship cards (colour)
Instructions:
Have the children draw and write about their best friends on our cards. Cut out
the cards. Wrap a mini cereal box in coloured paper (or paint the box). Stick the
cards to the box. Use the boxes to build a wall.
Variations:
1. For a group or classroom project, ask each child to write about their best
friend - or divide the children into partners. Alternatively, ask each child in
the class to write something about a child who is leaving, a birthday child, a
child who is finding it hard to fit into the group, etc.
2. Make a Great Wall of Love by using our ‘I love…’ cards.
I Love cards
I Love Cards (colour)
3. Make a poster by gluing all of the friendship cards to a large sheet of paper
in a wall pattern.
