About this idea

The elf has taped a printed 'screenshot' of a fake group chat to the bathroom mirror or fridge, starring the tween's name. The elf 'texted' something totally embarrassing like 'Anyone else think math is actually kinda fun? 🤓' and signed off as the tween. Use sticky notes to add fake reply bubbles from 'friends' reacting with pure chaos emojis. Made using only paper, tape, and a marker!

What you'll need

  • Printer (or printed screenshot beforehand)
  • Sticky notes
  • Tape or glue stick
  • Marker
  • Bathroom mirror or fridge (as display surface)

How to set it up

  1. Print out a funny fake group chat screenshot that includes your child’s name and a silly message like “Anyone else think math is actually kinda fun? 🤓” signed by your child.
  2. Tape the printed screenshot to the bathroom mirror or fridge using tape or a glue stick.
  3. Use sticky notes to create reply bubbles from fictional friends, adding chaotic or funny reactions like “No way!! 😱”, “You’re banned!! 🙅‍♀️”, or “Math is for nerds!! 🤯” and tape them around the main message.

Tips & variations

  • Let your preschooler help write the funny replies using simple emojis and short messages for added participation.
  • For a reusable setup, use a magnetic whiteboard or a small portable board instead of tape.
  • Adjust the humor level to suit your child’s age—keep it light and playful, avoiding any potentially sensitive topics.
