Getting Crafty with Magnets

At church, I work with the kids in Primary (basically the Sunday School for kids). Each year there's a specific focus that the lessons revolve around and all the lessons and songs that we teach during the year culminate in a Primary Program the kids put on for the whole congregation during Sacrament meeting.
Collect the supplies: Clear stones, magnets, and the image you want to use

Our Primary Program is coming up in just a couple weeks. The kids work super hard and, even if it isn't a seamless production, the parents won't mind 'cuz the cuteness factor is always overwhelming. As a thank you to the kids, during the hours after Sacrament (where they usually have their Sunday school lessons), we're having a game day and an ice cream party. I'm also putting together little goodie bags.
Apply a little bit of glue to the back of the stone and slap on the paper, add some more glue to seal it down

In addition to a few bits of candy and some stickers and whatnot, I'll be including this little magnet to help remind them of what our focus has been this year: Choose the Right (CTR).
Then, with a glue gun, attach the magnet to the back of the stone and voila!

Super simple, and with awesome coupons, fairly inexpensive.. and I really think they turned out pretty well. Yay for Primary!
