Ideas at Your Fingertips
While homeschooling my son, as an art and writing project we made a writing box. We filled it with strips of paper, each containing a writing prompt, cut from a pre-printed page of prompts that I made on the computer. We used a paper mache box that we painted with acrylic paint and collaged with bits of decorative papers with a writing theme. We also used mini scrabble tiles and rubber stamping to complete it. The folded prompts were placed inside. My son would choose one at random from the box when needed.
You could do this project just for fun, and perhaps put inspirational quotes, fortune cookie messages (start saving), or funny sayings inside. What else can you think of?
Have fun and Happy Writing!
