What you need

A full sheet of paper and large child-appropriate crayons.

Age: 3–5 years; choose for the individual child.

Let's make it happen

  1. Draw a wide crown outline on the sheet together.
  2. Fill each point with a different mark or color and add a birthday number if you wish.
  3. Give the crown design a name and tell a story about its celebration.

Adult stays beside the child; keep the finished design flat on the table.
