A friend of mine linked to a cute t-shirt upcycle DIY to another friend of mine on fb today. By following the link and then browsing the site a bit, I ran across several tutorials on how to make fortune cookies out of paper or felt. The tutorials all used Valentine's Day as a theme, but I thought "What a GREAT idea for singing time!"
Here's a link to one of the tutorials I found. I like this one because you can actually open and close the cookie to get the fortune out. ^^

And maybe I can go to the craft store or a dollar store and buy one of those large chinese take out boxes people use for gifts to put all the cookies...
Of course, I would be putting the names of songs to sing in place of a fortune. Though, I'm trying to figure out how I could put a "fortune" in the cookie and make it like a clue to the song we'll sing??? Like, "Love thy neighbor as thy brother" for "Love One Another" or "He has given you an earthly home with parents kind and dear" for "I Am A Child of God" or "As you search the scriptures, you will hear His words of peace" for "If I Listen With My Heart"... so yeah, something like that. ^^ Either way, I know the kids will love it.
