Narrations Jar

As school has started I was looking for something to liven up our narrations a little. I do require the two big kids to do a written narration once a week (twice for Jam).
However I saw a fun idea here and thought I would try this to add a twist of excitement to our day.

I changed a couple of the labels (My kids would die laughing if they read Mama). I also removed the playdoh and blocks as when my kids get those out it's hard to get them to stop.

Skip the narration today.

I put my slips in a glass jar and then 'modge pogded' a label on it so little jam wouldn't pull it off!

Added a ribbon and Jam found it before the glue had dried and pulled out a slip!

and off we went.....

The Modge Podge was not quite dry when I took the picture...but it wasn't when Jam pulled his first slip so you will just have to forgive me.
