Simple holiday ornament craft idea from The Learning Tree in Livermore, CA

While the holidays speed around the corner and approach us we tend to look back on the year and look at how fast time went by. Another year, another 365 days is almost gone! Another chapter of our lives almost closed, one filled with memories, laughs and good times. The end of the year can be a bittersweet moment as we recall all the family trips and times we spent interacting with our closest friends. It’s sad to watch it all go and see it close out. Goodbyes are always the hardest, but it’s always nice to look forward to a new beginning with a fresh start. A new book with 365 pages to fill in on your own with more fun times. Heres an idea for the moms to do with their kids to always remember the big moments in every year. This will be special for both you and your child!

What you will need;

1. a blank ornament (one which you can write on and that will show up)
2. colorful permanent markers

Directions;

1. Talk with your family and pick some special moments and/or trips from this year
2. With one colored sharpie write the year. (make sure you leave space to be able to write around it)
3. After, write some of your families picks of the year on it  (Disneyland, 4th of July, 2nd Birthday, etc).
4. Hang this lovely keepsake on your tree so in years to come you can look back on the events that were shared throughout each year!
