Best Friend Moving Away Goodbye Book: A Keepsake Two Kids Make Together

A best friend is about to move, and the two of them have one last playdate. This 16-page printable goodbye book is made for that afternoon. Print two copies, one for each friend. Each child fills in their own copy about the other, then they swap books, so each friend keeps a book written in the other's handwriting.

What is inside (16 pages, US Letter, landscape):
- Page 1: cover. Page 2: whose book it is, and how the two copies work.
- Page 3: the first time we met, with a drawing box.
- Page 4: all about my friend, eight favourites to fill in about the other child.
- Pages 5 to 8: five things I love about you; things we always do together (tick boxes); our best day ever; secret words, jokes and a handshake.
- Page 9: from here to there, a map page with room to write both places and, with a grown-up, how far apart they are.
- Page 10: how we will stay friends: letters, calls, a book to read at the same time.
- Pages 11 and 12: one page for the child who is moving and one for the child who is staying.
- Page 13: two envelopes to address. Page 14: a postcard to cut out for the first week (a grown-up cuts it out).
- Page 15: a promise page to sign. Page 16: three "open when" notes.

The prompts are open-ended, so children write at their own level. A grown-up writes the real addresses.
