You Blew Me Away This Year! Student Gifts


Ms. ChloĆ« is such a spoilsport sometimes. She'll bake cookies and brownies, and treat her littles to treats, but when it comes time for presents, she always avoids candy. We can talk later about the different ways that our bodies metabolize candy vs baked goods, if you're feeling so inclined (I always offer this discussion to my students too--they never take me up on it). It also has something to do with not wanting to have to wrangle 58 elementary students all hopped-up on high fructose corn syrup. No thank you.

I'd much rather wrangle 58 elementary students who are blowing bubbles outside.


We're having an end-of-year celebration that is a little bubble-centric (this is going to happen), so what better to give the smalls than their own bubble canisters? I found these wedding bubble canisters at Hobby Lobby on sale for $1.99 for 24 containers (score) and created these printable tags to fit on them.

Supplies
   mini bubble canisters
   printable: you really blew me away this year!
   scissors
   hole punch
   ribbon

Instructions
  1. Print out printable on white or color paper. I went for blue, because, well, blue makes sense for bubbles. I colored in the bit of "sheen" on my bubbles with a white gel pen.
  2. Cut out and whole punch printables. Use ribbon to tie tags to bubbles.
  3. Give as gifts!
