Appreciation of Earlier Times-A Peek-a-Boo Project


 April Showers Bring May Flowers we would say as a child. We loved decorating Easter Eggs as children and making my aunt’s Peanut Butter Graham Cracker Eggs.

 

Revisiting my collection of vintage 1950’s Jack and Jill and Children Activities I was taken back to these childhood memories.  

These magazines feature heartwarming stories, fun activities, and charming graphics that can bring out the child in all of us.

The covers of the magazines showcase delightful graphics that evoke pleasant memories of the past.


 The illustrations inside are equally lovely.

















Party Planning and recipes were included.



Craft Ideas are included and remind us that sometimes the simpliest gift is a handmade one, and also the most appreciated.






If crafts weren't your thing, there were stories and poetry to entertain you, and other activities even songs to sing.













The included calendars are fantastic and can even double as coloring pages.








 I don't think this advertisement would be published today.
