Valentine Classroom & Teacher Gift Ideas

Yesterday morning Dawn and I made a few Valentine items for the kids class party and their teachers.  Caleb & Isa wanted to bring the Valentine Bananas.   Dawn found the idea on Pinterest - Cake Whiz .  Check out our Banana's! So easy - we wrote on our bananas with black & red ink.



Dawn also found the perfect Valentine's for Davey's class - they party with K4 & K5 class. Sweet CS Designs had the cutest download. Our cards are a little different ~We used only black ink to print the cards and leftover yarn to tie on the dinosaurs. Dawn found 101 count dinosaurs container at Wal-Mart for $5.00. Lots of left over dino's for Davey to play with.



For the teachers gifts we made cards attached to Scentsy Wax.  The saying is our own. It took us a while but we totally came up with the saying ourselves. 

Banana's cost $5.00 for two classrooms
Dina Cards - $5.00 + printer ink ~ card stock paper ~ yarn
Teachers Gift ~ $5.00 wax + card stock and ribbon

    Great ideas. My kids don't normally give their teachers anything because we hook them up at the end of the year, teacher appreciation week and Christmas.

    These are great ideas. I always put together a small basket for the teacher when my son was in school.

    The banana is perfect, I hate that they bring home so much sugar that day. What happened to cute little cards?

    How original! I'm new to bringing things to my kids class rooms but always liked the idea of gifts verses candy.
