Cards to Care

There are so many lonely groups of people out there including the elderly, homeless, and sick. Holiday seasons can be especially hard for those people, so although this won't fix their problem, we can show that people do care (even if they can't help) and try to give them hope for help. I also use card-making to teach my kids to think about, care about, and safely help others with the gifts God has given them. Even as young children who can barely talk, a scribble-y colored card could brighten the day of a grandparent who can't see their kids often since moving to a retirement home.

How To:

1. Look up "Free Printable Color Page Cards" on Bing (make sure you're logged in to stash those Bing Rewards Points!).

2. Print out desired number of printable color page cards. Print to fold twice rather than once (saves on printing time if you don't have a fancy printer available).

3. During coloring time, swap some books for some cards. Once they're all finished, take them to the group that you had in mind.
