Materials

Family photos
Max & Ruby Photo Placemat Printable
Scissors
Glue stick and tape

Tip: Print a variety of photos for the peek-a-boo holes. Then let kids choose the ones they like best.

Directions

Step 1: Choose family photos
This is a great opportunity to travel down memory lane with your preschooler. Have fun and remember to choose two photos to use for each placemat.
Step 2: Trim printable and cut out photo openings
Print out one or more of the printable placemats. Then, cut out the two sides of the placemat and the two photo openings.
Step 3: Tape the photos to the back
Tape the photos to the back of the printable so they're facing out and centered in the peek-a-boo photo holes.
Step 4: Glue placemat sides together and laminate
Overlap the two sheets so the designs match up and glue stick together. Let dry completely. Laminate at your local copy store for longer life and easy cleanup.
