Hi Callie,

It's a great idea to make a candy gram for your cheer buddy! It's really not hard at all.

1. Choose a piece of poster board (any color will do).
   
   
2. You can glue some ribbon around the edges if you like to make it a bit fancier (maybe in your team colors?).
   
   
3. Print out the "message" and cut it into strips to tape or glue to the poster board. If you choose a light colored poster, you could just write directly on the poster with markers instead.
   
   
4. Tape or hot glue the chosen candy in the appropriate places.

Here's an idea of ways to use the candy in your message:

Please don’t (Snicker) at my silly card, but I wanted you to know that with you as a cheer buddy, I have a (Whopper) of a time! I wouldn’t trade you for…(100 Grand) Because you’re (Good & Plenty) and one of my best friends. You know how to (Tootsie Roll) with the punches, and you're always there in the (Nestle Crunch). So, let’s keep having (Mounds) of fun and (Razzle Dazzle) everyone with our great cheers.

You can get more ideas for phrases just by looking through the candy aisle of your local store.


I hope you come back here and let us know what you finally come up with. Take a photo and show it off!
