The Year Jar
Write thank-yous to the old year and wishes for the new one, fold them up and seal them in a jar – then open it together next New Year's Eve. Color the label and the “Don't open until New Year's Eve” tag, cut them out and stick them on any clean glass jar. Regular paper, single-sided, 100 % / “actual size”. You also need a jar with a lid, glue or tape and a piece of ribbon. Ages 4–10.
