Puzzle Piece Message

A message from the elf is cut into puzzle pieces and scattered on the table. Put it together to read what the elf has to say.

Instructions

Write a short message on a sheet of colored paper in big letters, like "You are kind, clever and loved!"
Draw wavy lines across it to make 8 to 12 pieces.
Cut along the lines.
Scatter the pieces on the table and sit the elf holding one piece.
Add a note: "I broke my letter! Can you fix it?"

Tip: For little ones, make fewer, bigger pieces; for older kids, hide a few around the room.
