MDS Blog Hop: Teacher Thank You Cards
It's finals week! I am so ready to be done with school until Fall. Yay! I will be starting at a new school and so will Esper. I am very sad to have to say goodbye to her wonderful teachers and friends. I'm sure she'll love her new school but she had such a great time and grew so much and I'll always think of it as her first "school" experience. She went from having anxiety around people to really opening up and making lots of friends. Our theme this week reminded me that I needed to make some teacher appreciation gifts for her teachers. I made it really simple- it only took me about 10 minutes to design one of these and then copy and paste it so I had two. I will just attach these to Target gift cards and call it good.

DIY Reindeer Teacher Gift Bags
Today I have a project to share with you that Esper and I made for her preschool teachers. (Inspiration found here.) These reindeer teacher gift bags were so easy to make! I just used brown lunch sacks that I filled with candy, chapstick, and hot cocoa packets. To make the antlers, I just twisted pipe cleaners and then stuck one end into the back of the bag, where the flaps fold over. This project was very easy to make with a child because you are just punching shapes out and then gluing them on. Esper got distracted eating candy, though, so she wasn't much help.
She did think that the reindeer needed a little jewelry so she tried to put a bracelet on them.
Then she was "crafting." In this picture she is saying to me "Mommy, you hand me dos scissors?" I died laughing. Of course I said no. This girl can only have safety scissors.
How can I say no when this face asks for ten more M&M's? :)
