Homemade Menu
My daughter is always asking me, "Mommy, what do you want to eat." she wants to take my order like at a restaurant. Only problem is no matter what I order she is out of that. lol so I said to myself I'll fix that, I can get her to make a menu for her restaurant from grocery store ads. That way I have to pick something on the menu. So I got some old ads and let her cut out what she wanted on her menu. She did fantastic cutting them out but I did have to trim them up a little to make them all fit on the page. I wrote Menu on top and what each thing was under the picture so she could see the written for of the word as well. then put it in a clear protector page and taped the top with packing tape. She loved it and loved cutting and helping me glue. I let her put the glue on and I put it on the page just to make sure it would all fit. Then she used the leftover ads to make a food collage.

I love this idea too, LOL! My two year old isn't talking yet, so I have been thinking of a 'menu' to help her communicate what she wants to us. I hadn't thought of using grocery store ads. I kept getting stuck on how printables don't look like the 'real' thing. Definitly going to scour up some ads when I get home today.

Thanks and it uses so much ink. I try to reuse as much as I can.
