Sticker Puzzle

This is the perfect thrifty craft for kids. You make it with things you already have on hand, and it doubles as a game.

Approximate Time: 20 minutes

Supplies:

• sheet of construction paper or card stock
• ruler
• pencil
• scissors
• stickers
• envelope - used or new

Instructions:

1. Measure and cut your paper to measure 8x8 inches.

2. Cover the front of the paper with stickers. We used free stickers that came in the mail with advertising, but any stickers will do.

3. Turn the paper over to the back. Use your ruler and pencil to separate the paper into a grid of 2 inches squares. Now cut the paper apart on the lines you drew.

4. Turn the puzzle pieces over to the picture side and try to put your puzzle back together again, by matching the parts of the sticker pictures you cut apart when you made the pieces. It's trickier than it looks.

5. Store your puzzle pieces in an envelope.
