so then my little tinker started its creative tinkering, what would I make for Kimahri's teachers, it had to be something fast, over the top, and duplicate-able (word of the day), because my son has a lot of teacher. You're probably thinking well how many teachers does he have? let me first start by defining what a teacher is at the Simon house.
Kimahri's Teacher (Simons) definition
A teacher is any individual that takes a stake and or part in educating someone, by not only instructing them on core curriculum or applications such as a traditional teacher, but any one that takes time out to have a personal individualized relationship with you
When I worked preschool parents would bring gifts solely for the teacher, leaving the aides without, when were with their children all day from 6 am to 6 pm. I was a credentialed teacher but worked as an aide because of lack of teacher position, so it kind of hurt when parents didn't appreciate the hard work that we all put in as a team to educate their well rounded child.
Blah blah blah with that being said I wasn't going to be that parent. Teacher or staff that took time out of their normal daily routine to have a personal relationship with my son was getting a gift. this list included:
Director, and Assistant Director
front desk lady
my sons teacher and both aides
the noon duties on the playground
his morning class teachers
his old home base teacher (which works at the same school he attends)
my fav teacher Ms Maggie ( I was her aide)
and my son and daughters 4 daycare providers
Oh and Ms Melissa from room 2 ( because I wuuuub her and she acts like my son is in her class even though he's not)
There's so many Noon duties that I really didn't know how many gifts I needed do I made 24 and I'm hoping that, that will cover everybody (finger crossed)
blah blah blah now to the good stuff the pictures,
I used cricut lite teddy bear parade, the doily I had cut along time ago from an old project. I don't know where I got them from.
also used
Pint size mason jars
brown hemp
standard size cupcake wrappers ( I used 2 per jar and off set them to give a fuller look)
dried: cranberries, bananas, mangos.
white chocolate chips
White chocolate pretzels
granola ( nut free)
