Helping Kids Remember
Build a memory chain to remember happy times.
- Cut apart the “Memory Chain” strips. Help kids write or draw a memory on each one.
- Link the strips by looping them to one another, using tape to create a chain of memories. Hang up the memory chain, adding new memories and occasionally reading through them together.
