Tracing Paper


Do you remember tracing paper?

Your nephew doesn’t remember tracing paper, because he’s never seen it.

Tracing paper is really fun stuff. 

If you don’t have any tracing paper lying around, go to the place where you keep your jumbles of wrapping paper.  There’s possibly some tissue wrapping in that heap, and it will work fine for the purpose.

Okay, I agree—this is probably for younger kids. But tracing is a blast.   Find a printed image that your nephew really likes, or at least is intrigued by, gather up some pencils or pens  (colored pencils are great) and trace away.  When you take up the tracing paper from the original—bang!  It’s a masterpiece.
