After discussing with your young students what personification is, ask them to choose an item of their own or from the classroom. Then, tell them to write a letter to that object thanking it for what it has done for them :) Guide your students into expanding reasons, situations, anecdotes etc. Help them see the objects beyond the obvious ;)
I have read AMAZING letters throughout the years and, as an example, I leave you one of my students' as a gift :)
PS: As a closure, you can ask them to "be" that object and write a reply letter to them :) It also works marvellously !!
