Birthday Coupon

What do you get a 6 year for her birthday when she seems to have everything already?  I was stumped by this question when it occurred to me...how about a birthday coupon so she can pick it herself. 


I made this adorable little coupon book for my 6 year old niece.  I used a tutorial from Tatertots and Jello and modified it to be birthday book.  Instead of having multiple coupons like the tutorial, I made little pages to tell our niece how special she is to us.

Some photos...
 
And some little notes...
And, of course, the coupon...


The whole thing was made out of playing cards.



I wasn't sure how she liked it when she first opened it...


...but she opened the game as soon as we left the store and once we were home she sat in the car playing for another 5-10 minutes in the driveway before coming inside.  Later that day she told us that it was her new favorite game so the coupon book was definitely a big success.

Happy 6th Birthday Ms. Ashley!!
