You need

  • A mirror
  • Paper and crayons

Let's play

  1. Look in the mirror together. What color are your eyes? Your hair?
  2. Draw a big face shape.
  3. Look, then draw: eyes, nose, mouth, ears and hair.
  4. Write your name at the top and hang it up!
Grown-up tip: Do one each year and keep them. It’s amazing to see the changes.
