Whether your St. Patrick's Day celebration is large or small, this banner will make it all  the more festive!  All you do is download, print and cut out. Then string it together with any kind of ribbon or twine.  Each triangle measures 5" tall x 3" wide. There are 9 different pieces to this banner. We've designed it to spell out "Irish" Luck.

There are two different banner sizes included here. One banner has pieces that measures 5" tall x 3" wide and the other has pieces that measure 3" tall and almost 2" wide.  Use one banner for decorating your home and the other for decorating dessert......Tie the twine around two small dowels and put the smaller banner atop your favorite dessert (cake) or on a plate of cupcakes.

Halloween Lunchbox Notes-Celebrate Halloween the whole month long with the kids!

Our Halloween Lunchbox Notes have arrived again.

 We hope these make the kids Halloween even more special.....Enjoy!

Love, Love, Love this time of year and all the fun holidays and events that come with it....have I said that before? :)   I love to look out my window and see the entire mountain side changing from green to orange, yellow, red and brown. Then there's another chance a little later down here in town to witness the amazing color transformation again. Fall is such an amazing time of year. It's also a time of new beginnings:  (1)New school year  (2) Football season begins  again. (3)Favorite TV shows return  (4)Cooler weather is back  (5)Halloween and trick or treating commence (6)Thanksgiving and pumpkin pies are front and center again. So many wonderful things!

I'd like to add to this fabulous list of fun fall events by releasing our Halloween Lunchbox Notes!  I believe that Halloween should be celebrated throughout the month of October and not just one day. Slip one of these fun Halloween themed lunchbox notes in your child's lunchbox and they are sure to put a smile upon their face and make this holiday even more special to them.

Mostly, the reason I design lunchbox notes is that I believe children need as much positive feedback and positive influence as they can get. I don't believe that criticizing a child will make them a better reader, or better at math or anything they are trying to do in school.....However I do believe that a positive thought works wonders. That goes for children AND adults.  These lunchbox notes are like a hug and a kiss from Mom/Dad/Grandma/Grandpa during school. Seems like such a simple thing, these lunchbox notes....but I can tell you they can become so important to a child.  It will be a tradition that they will truly cherish.  ENJOY

18 Fun Tags-You're One Smart Cookie-Teacher Appreciation and Kids Lunches (Home & School)

Here's something for the kids (and the teachers)  We've designed a 2" tag and a 3" tag. You can attach  the 2" tag to a bag of cookies or a single cookie. It  would be fun for the kids lunchbox,  lunch at home, or  reward for something well done. We took the 3" tags and put them in a paper CD Envelope. It can hold to to a jumbo sized cookie.

Click HERE to get a set of our "You're one SMART Cookie" tags 

in our Etsy Shop. 

 These would be a fun treat for a school party or for the teacher to give to her class. 

The CD envelopes are the perfect size for a large cookie and the 3" labels fit perfectly inside the see-thru circle. Use a 3" round paper punch on these tags.

(12 tags with a different "kid" on each one) Cut out these tags using a 2" round paper punch or cut into squares. There's a different  kid on each of the 12 labels.

These cookies are Keeblers Grasshopper cookies and Keeblers Fudge cookies. Perfect size for a 4" x 6"  bag. You could attach the 3" tag onto a package or box of cookies and give it to the teacher for Teacher Appreciation too!

Fun for the Kids Lunch at Home or School-15 Tags for Bottled Water--Make Drinking Water Fun!

We've designed 15 different tags to put on the water bottles for the kids school lunch or at home.  If you're trying to encourage them to drink less soda and fruit drinks and more water then this will help in your endeavors. The tag will make the water bottle FUN! They work in the same way as our lunchbox notes. Each tag is showing love and/or encouragement for your child.  They will definitely put a smile on their faces.

Click HERE to go to our Etsy Shop and purchase these 15 Water Bottle Tags. 

It's a simple thing you can do for your kids. 

We buy our bottled water at Costco. You can get 70 bottles for just $6.99....that's about 10 cents a bottle. I don't know of any other drink that you can get for that price and is as good for the kids as water.  The 8 oz bottle is the perfect size for the lunchbox too. We just use the box the water comes in to store them in our pantry.

All you do is download the digital file, print and cut them out and adhere to the bottle. I just use scotch tape.   Print off enough for at least a month. You could let the kids select the bottle they want on a particular day or surprise them with a bottle you've chosen. The "Good luck on your test" is a great one for test day.

Click HERE to go to our Etsy Shop and purchase these Water Bottle Tags.
