Passport Stamp Collection

Children carry a homemade passport around country activities and earn a stamp for each one, encouraging them to try every experience.

How to run it

  1. Make simple card passports in advance or as a first activity.
  2. Set up activities, each representing a country.
  3. Give each activity its own stamp or sticker.
  4. Children collect stamps as they complete activities.
  5. Celebrate full passports at the end of the day.
