All you do to make this craft:
1. Print out some lines and the words "I love you because..."
2. Cut it to the size of the frame that you have on hand
3. Frame it!
There are several ways to do this with your family.
1. You could just keep this between husband and wife and write notes back and forth to each other (ie. keep this on your beside table with a dry erase marker and encourage encouraging words between spouses!)
2. You could do this as a family (which is what we have chosen to do). We leave this on our kitchen table and then write on it to one member of the family at a time. Now, my daughter is 8 years old she she is able to write, but even if the child wants to write and can't you can write for them. My 4 year old son said "I love Daddy because he is my best friend." My husband is going to treasure that for the rest of his life.
The person you wrote about then has their own turn to write about someone else. We talk about it during dinner a lot of the times leading to great dinner-time discussion.
However you choose to use a project like this, just know you are building encouraging words and LOVE within your family!
