The options are really endless.

You may want to grab some old magazines.

Maybe newspapers.

Or perhaps you’ve got some of your own personal pictures on hand.

 

Now…select maybe 4,5 or 6 pictures…cut them out and get that imagination going.

 

Grab some paper, your favorite writing utensil and start telling a story by the pictures you’ve hand picked!

 

Go in order from left to right…and once you’ve written one–REARRANGE– and GET BUSY AGAIN!!

Such creativity!!!

The joys of spring are all so fun,

Like Shere’s ice

Cream for every one.

Beautiful flowers,

A wonderful day,

The excitement of spring is a blink away.

Pink lemonade and ice tea too,

Lets go fishing, me and you.

Beautiful butterflies,

People out side,

I just wish spring never ever dies

I love Peeps you do too

Lets get some me and you.
