December 2021 At-Home Kit

This month we are going to create some holiday cards using watercolor pencils.  You may keep your cards or send your cards...we are asking for at least one card back for the residents at the Kodiak Senior Center.

Please remember, the message inside the card is often just as important , if not more, than the art on the front!! Put some thought into your message. Some ideas for messages could include-

• May your day be filled with all kinds of bright sunny things
• Sending cheerful thoughts to brighten your day
• Sending lots of hugs your way
• Wishing you peace, love and joy this holiday season
• You are a bright and shining star!
• Today is a good day for a GOOD DAY
• Best wishes for a wonderful holiday
• We wanted you to know we are thinking of you and hoping you have a wonderful day!
