Flat Stanley

We recently came across the story of Flat Stanley, about a little boy who gets flattened and them mailed around the world on adventures.  We decided to make our own Flat Stanley and send him off.

We printed out our Stanley here and the kids each colored one.  I then made a little journal out of this free printable using my day planner technique, super easy.  I created an instruction pocket out of this printable and sewed it on the front, leaving one side open.  We folded up one of our Stanleys and put him in the pocket and mailed him off to our furthest cousin.  The idea is for him to travel to six different people before making it back to us.  Here's the instruction sheet if you would like to make your own...
