Assembling the kits

Purchase enough plain 9"x12" booklet-style envelopes so that there is one for each participating family. Most stationery and office supply stores carry envelopes that will work well. You can also find them on the Internet by typing the words “booklet envelopes” or “large envelopes” into a search engine. Decorate the envelopes with Take-Home Kit Labels. Download the label page above and print it on Avery Labels (size 5262) until you have sufficient labels for all kits. Don't forget to have plenty of markers available at the event so that families can write their names on their kits!
