It is quite happy for people to receive a handmade card that is made up of messages of greeting or love. In this era, many people would like to use the computer to do the things they like. They will not want to use their hands to write something and they will just think that writing something is silly because they write better than writing. If you don’t want your children to give up writing at such a young age, you need to teach them the culture of writing, like writing letters.

Actually, it is a kind of art-based education. With this type of education, your children are likely to be more interested in doing something on their own instead of buying a lot of things that could waste money. They will know that handmade birthday present is better than expensive gifts so they will not try to be materialistic.

If your kids want to make some interesting cards instead of a plain boring plain card, you can teach them how to make a button card. First, you can fold a card or paper in half. If you are going to send this card to others by mail, you must fit the letter in the envelope.

So you can measure the size of the envelope and cut the paper to fit. You can use a ruler and pencils to mark the cut line before using a pair of scissors to do so. As mentioned above, this type of work is an art-based education. Therefore, you must work hard to teach your children that planning is important before doing anything.

After that, you can further cut your paper to make some special shapes. If you want to make a card in the shape of a holly leaf to represent winter, figure out the shape of the holly leaf and cut the card this way. If your children love animals, you can also teach them to cut the cardboard into the corresponding shapes. Of course, your kids may not understand much about the actual shape of those animals and they may not know how to cut them well. You should do your research beforehand and teach them when necessary.

Then you can try to find out if there are any buttons in your house that could be used to make the card. You should try to find strong glues to hold the buttons in position. You can also add ribbons or bows to this card to make things beautiful.

This type of design could also be used as a handmade birthday present. You can teach your children that they can use this type of gift to express their love to the recipient.

Therefore, you should remind them to leave spaces to write some words on the cards if you know that your children will send this type of card to others with a message included. And you must remember that the buttons must not be crowded on one side or else the card will bend.
