In the bag!

There’s always a party or craft or something to plan for at school, so I’ve always got to be ready for the next holiday/season around the corner.  Sometimes I wonder if I should just flip my calendar over a month early so I’ll be way ahead of the game.  I haven’t done that yet, but I’m so on top of Valentine’s day this year that I couldn’t help but boast.  And then share some of the super duper cute ideas out there that I didn’t think of myself but am totally using:

My girl Amy already has a helpful list with several links:

Love her owls!

Vday Owl Bookmarks

 

I used these in 2009 (but she made more for 2010):

Vday Animals

 

Then I came across a few more ideas I showed my boys:

Cute treat bag toppers (good for non-edible treats too)

Love this “wheelie” cute idea!

And you KNOW I’m giving every one of my sniffly students one of these gems for germs!

I showed these to Zack and said, “Aren’t these funny?  Wouldn’t these be fun to give to your friends?”
He gave me an incredulous look and said, “No.”

(That was a no-it’s-not-funny-&-no-I’m-not-giving-those-to-my-friends, no)

The next day I heard him telling Braxton the knock-knock joke and saying, “Isn’t that funny?!”

Traitor.  He better like his wheelie valentines!
