Our last day of school was last Thursday already!!! I have had a few days to relax and have even gone back in to do some major cleaning in my classroom!!! So glad to be on Summer break...but I sure am going to miss these little sweeties!!!
LOVE this picture:) If you don't take one of these...you MUST next year!!! It's the PERFECT ending to your kinder slideshow:)!!!
Here are a couple of end of the year gifts I made. If you're still in school, you might want to use them, or save them for next year!!!;)
This idea is for parent volunteers that you have had in your classroom. I couldn't live without mine and so, I wanted to do something special for them to make sure they know how much they are appreciated!!!
I got some cheap little flowerpots and spray painted them white. Each kiddo dipped their little finger in yellow paint and made a print on the pot. I wrote "Kindergarten Class of 2011" on the rim and then I decorated the fingerprints to look like little bees using fine tip sharpe. I PUT A COAT OF MODPODGE OVER ALL OF IT SO THAT THE MARKER WOULD NOT SMUDGE WHEN IT GETS WET!!! Sorry-the pic is not the greatest:( I almost forgot to take one, so I had to use my phone!
Here is a close-up:
We planted little yellow flowers in them and stuck in a sign that said: "Thanks for "bee-ing" so helpful.

This is an idea I got from Musings of Me. I made it for my son's pre-school teacher and I absolutely LOVE how it turned out!!!! It was so easy, cheap and adorable!!! Click on this link to get the directions from

Your bee flower pots are ADORABLE!! Thank you so much for sharing! I will definitely use this idea next year! :)
ReplyDeleteI just found this. I did bumble bees one year as well. The next year I did ladybugs since I had siblings! My parents loved the pots. I put packets of seeds inside and wrote something along the lines of "thanks for helping our children grow."
