Memory Jars Are a Creative Way Celebrate 2018

January 11, 2018

If you just moved to a new house, city or you just want to be more intentional about remembering the best of 2018 – consider creating a memory jar.

Here’s what you’ll need:

• 2 Ball jars
• 2 Labels
• Pens
• Small strips of paper

What to do:

• Write “Memory Jar” on one label and place it on jar #1
• Create a second label by writing “Paper” and place it on jar #2
• Put small strips of paper in the “paper jar” with the pens
• Explain to your family that you would like to gather memories throughout the year and you want everyone to participate
• Consider writing the memories during a designated time when you’re all together: after dinner, before bed, etc.
• Here are some ideas of things to write:
  • Funny moments
  • Good things that happen
  • Blessings
  • Answered prayer
  • Recognition, awards
  • New habits, hobbies or passions
  • Funny things people say
  • Events that define the year
