If  your loved ones have a bad memory, you do not repeat every day the same thing. And you’ll be annoyed, and they are. There are more gentle way of reminding about the importance – message board with notes.
And if the memory of family members working well, the board can pin the kid’s drawings, photographs, or leave as is – it is in any case, it will look fine.

We need

frame
a piece of striped fabric
foam rubber
board
stapler
cardboard

The fabric is cut in half and half again. Should get four equal squares.

Take a sheet of  foam rubber, impose on him the frame and cut out the  foam rubber around the perimeter of the frame. Glue the frame and  foam rubber.

Cloth nailed to the frame. Beginning with one side, fold the fabric over the back of the board and secure with a stapler.
Repeat for all sides, pulling fabric taught as needed. Making the back wall. Cut a piece of cardboard to fit inside the square frame. Close the seams with cardboard.

By the same token you can sew pillows, repeating the pattern of  boards.
