First of all, you’ll want to order your supplies ahead of time. I love to use Amazon because of the ease, and since I have Amazon Prime, usually the ordered items arrive in two days.

Make Your Scrabble Tile Christmas Ornament More Special

Here’s a suggestion for making the Scrabble Tile Christmas ornament even more meaningful and special. Use your child’s name and the year for the “words.” On the back, attach a picture of the child. Laminate it before attaching to make the ornament last even longer. Use stickers, charms, and/or buttons that demonstrate what your child did or was interested in during that year!
