Jubilee/Olympics Time Capsule.

[Toothfairy]

As part of my Jubilee and Olympics planning, I thought each child could make a time capsule with a Jubilee/Olympic theme. When we have finished, the children could seal them and take them home to be opened at a later date.

I am finding it hard to think of things to put in them.
I thought each child could have a shoe box and decorate it in Red, White and blue, collage pictures of the queen and the Olympics etc. Then each child could fill their own box with;

* A picture of themselves (or with their family)
* A picture of the front of their house
* A 'MY FAVORITE' collage (made up of pictures of their favorite toy, programme, book, food, song/rhyme etc
* A coin minted in 2012
* A Union Jack flag
* A Picture of their Handprints and footprints in red, white and blue
* Photo copies of Newspaper articles on the Jubilee and Olympics

Can anyone else think of things they could put in?
Any ideas welcome. :thumbsup:

Definitely something with the date on and maybe why they decided to put the things in that they have chosen.

Think about when they might open them and ask them what they hope to be doing by that time.

I think it's a lovely idea
