Back To School-Sweet (chocolate) Teacher Appreciation Gifts and Office Staff etc..


Are your kids going back to school soon? Ours are….the 15th of August to be
 exact…..which seems kind of early to me! But it occurred to me that I needed 
to get my teacher appreciation kits available to those of you with kids. 
This is our newest design and the teachers are going to love them!




We've designed three different tags for this candy bar wrap. All 3 are perfect for 
the teachers at your school.  One is perfect for the school office staff and even the 
schools district office, the PTA or teachers other than school teachers.
 (Think music teachers, sports coaches, speech, drama or any other kind of teachers)




Who do you know that is #1 in your book? These sweet treats are a good way 
to get on the good side of your kids teachers and administrators.
  They will REMEMBER you!




This one is my favorite. Do you think teacher will like this one?





These candy bar wraps are so easy to assemble.  The apples are
 pre-assembled for you. All you do is tie the "To-From: tags around the stem. 
We can even personalize the tags for you. The perfect gift from the principal
 to their teachers for the beginning and end of the school year.




The kit contains everything you need except for 2 things.  You supply either 
double-sided tape or liquid craft glue which you would use to glue the wrap
 together on the right side and  the 1.55 oz, regular size Hershey Bars. You can
 get a box of 36 solid chocolate Hershey bar at Sam's Club  and Sam's
 online for $20.00. (55 cents a piece) Costco has 36 bars for $21.99. 
May also be available on Amazon.com.  



The side view shows you how the apple pops off the candy bar wrap.
 It's applied with a sticky foam dot (in kit).  The white tag is glued onto the
 front of the green backer tag and then adhered to the wrap with sticky foam dots. 
Bottom line this is a super easy candy bar wrap to assemble!

We have MORE gifts for Teachers, School Staff, PTA, School Administration and
 more in our Etsy shop. CLICK HERE to view all! Be sure to scroll all the

How to Make Summer Reading More Fun Plus Bookmarks for Boys and Girls


Summer is the perfect time for the kids to catch up on their reading. There's nothing like a summer afternoon and a good book.  When I was a kid I had health problems and I wasn't that active physically but what was active was my IMAGINATION!  I loved reading and I would let my imagination run wild in choosing what the characters in my books looked like and everything else in the book.  I would sit for literally hours reading my favorite books. It didn't matter if I was inside or outside. I also LOVED, LOVED, LOVED going to my public library. The children's section was in the basement and it was such a fabulous place.  To me the idea of the library letting me go in and come out with as many books as I wanted was so great!

When my children got old enough we would hang out at the library together and bring home armfuls of books. Now that my children have children of their own they are keeping up the tradition of visiting the library. The love of reading is such a great family tradition.


Now how do we make summer reading fun for the kids? How do we get them to read?

Take the kids to the library and help them to discover what type of books speak to them. It may be mysteries (which was what I loved) or  books about sports, dinosaurs, flowers, coding, flower arranging, jewelry making and other fun things.  Make the trip to the library a reward for completing their chores etc. There's a place in the library for everyone in your family, even you.


Ask the librarian what books are popular with the kids in their age group and what their peers are checking out. Librarians can be sooooo helpful and they are there to assist you in any way.




Select a wide variety of reading material every time you go to the library to expose them to more things. Even magazines and comic books. Books about building, art and crafts, astronomy or cooking would definitely be a great way to go. They may have a hidden talent that could be developed this summer.



Find fun places for the kids to read. A designated reading corner with a pillow and blanket would work nicely. Reading to your preschoolers is the perfect way to develop a love for reading and it's great quality time together.  Your kids will always have a great memory of reading with you.




Reading Teepees are cool too. It defines a special place for the kids to read, whether it is inside or outside the house. Great reading memories can be made inside a fun reading teepee.   CLICK HERE TO GET THE DETAILS on making this  No Sew Teepee




Now that you have the kids reading and enjoying it, how about giving them a fun reading reward? We have bookmarks for girls (above) and for boys (below) Kids LOVE bookmarks and how else are they going to mark their place in the books?    

 CLICK HERE  for bookmarks for girls.




We designed these bookmarks in colors that the boys would like.  Who knows…..they might just make reading even more fun!

Good Luck Smartie Pants-Slip into the Kid's Lunchbox when it's Test Day, Spelling Bee, Musical Performance etc.


 Here's a lunchbox treat for your little "Smartie"  We've designed some round labels that can be attached to a little bag of Smarties candy. Slip it into their lunchbox for a special surprise at lunch time. It's a great way to let your kids know that you think they are a "Smartie"

PERFECT ON DAYS WHEN THEY HAVE:

MATH, VOCABULARY, SPELLING TESTS
MUSICAL PERFORMANCES
SPELLING BEE
CLASS PERFORMANCE
BOOK REPORTS
SCHOOL TESTING DAYS
AND MUCH MORE! 


Click HERE to purchase a set in 
our Etsy Shop.




It's also the perfect tag for the first day of school. Some may be worried about school and how they may do and this will be a positive way to remind them that they will do GREAT!




These labels are designed for a 2" round paper punch.  Then use a very small paper punch to put two holes in the top of each circle. Thread your twine through it and around the plastic bag of your choice and tie a bow.  That's all there is to it. You could also use yarn or string. Fill the bag with enough treats for your little ones or extra Smarties to share with their friends at school.  Perfect for any day but especially on test day. 



The TAGS come in orange, green, yellow, blue, red and purple. 


I used pretzels bags which are available at any craft store.
  Look in the cake decorating department in your local craft store for
 small clear bags.  You can get a package of 25 Smarties from the dollar store.

Teacher Appreciation Gift Ideas-End of Year Candy Bar Wraps with Sweet Messages



Give teacher some yummy chocolate with a "Sweet" message.  Our candy bar wraps go around a regular size Hershey chocolate bar. And who doesn't like chocolate plus it is an inexpensive gift, but one teacher will love.  There are five different wraps, each with a message for teacher.  Gift tags are included too. (We have these same candy bar wraps with beginning of school year messages too) 




We used a white organza ribbon to attach the tag. You could glue the tag to the wrap if you like, even on the back of the wrap.  Give teacher one of each wrap or if there is a message you like better, you could give her several of the same one.





You can print the wraps at home or take them to a printer like Office Max, Office Depot, Staples etc.  You can print on copy paper or white cardstock paper. The printers will have the cardstock.






There are a lot of fun ways you could present these to your teacher. This is one of the clear paint cans you can buy at any craft store.




All you do is print, cut out and wrap around a adhere to a bar with tape, double sided tape, or glue. How simple is that? 






The wrap fits around a 1.55 oz Hershey bar wrap



All 5 Teacher Appreciation Wraps are available HERE
Won't teacher be happy!
