Young children love having photos of their friends around, so making these fun frames is a lovely activity to encourage talking about their friends and making at the same time. You can easily change up the photos whenever you feel the need and you can tailor the colours and decorative elements to whatever is in the photo.

A project with little mess, these frames use elastic bands and glue to hold things in place. These also make great gifts for friends and family.
