Folder Purse/Pouch


You will need:
file folder
2 shoe laces(or yarn)
hole punch
Things to deocrate with (stickers, crayons,etc.)


1.Punch holes around both sides and the bottom of the file folder. (don't do the top)

2.Take a shoe lace and let your child lace through the holes.

3.Tie the ends of other shoe lace to the ends of the shoe lace that are laced through the folder.

4.Decorate your purse/pouch....start playing!

*You can use these as purses, pouches, briefcases, mail carrier bags, anything your child's mind can come up with. My daughter and nephew loved this project and they played with these for hours, infact they still play with them. This project is also great because you can unlace it and do it all over again...not to mention you don't need glue or scissors!

Easy and fun. I am going to have my kindergarten kids make them next year for their Valentine's Day envelopes to hold their cards.
