Redeem This! Friendship Vouchers | ESL Creative Writing Activity

This creative writing task invites students to design their own friendship vouchers, small, thoughtful promises a friend can redeem for time, help or kindness. It’s a practical way to explore gratitude, empathy and real-world communication beyond material gifts.

The lesson begins with a guided discussion about what makes a good friend, followed by a writing activity using printable templates. Students create fun, meaningful vouchers that reflect both their personality and their language skills.

This task builds descriptive language, emotional expression and creative writing, all through a topic learners genuinely relate to.
