    Ice Cream Social Supplies

    I’m happy with any excuse for a party! This one is a little bittersweet – so ice cream felt like the perfect theme. A “last day of summer” party is a great way to help children mark the end of one season and move into the school year with a positive attitude. This can also be a really powerful tool for the classroom. If you have students that have been with you all summer and they’ll continue to stay with you throughout the school year, this can help make that mindset change from summer to the school year. It’s also a great way to say goodbye to children who were…

  • Gabby's Dollhouse Birthday Party

    Easy DIY Birthday Party

    We celebrated my girl’s birthday while camping last weekend and it was low-key, while still being everything she wanted! Kid’s birthday parties can get expensive really fast – especially if your child requests a character theme – but they absolutely don’t HAVE to be expensive. I was able to give her a Gabby’s Dollhouse Birthday Party using supplies from the Dollar Tree and craft stores, without breaking the bank. All of the decorations were DIY – banners that I designed, printed, and cut, and lots of yarn tassels and balloons. We did paper products in the color scheme, but not printed with any characters, which also saved a lot of…

  • Easy Teacher Halloween Costumes

    Last year I had a great idea for a Halloween costume. I bought all of the supplies and put it together, and didn’t try it on until the night before I needed it.  It. Looked. Awful.  So I needed a last minute costume – I rifled through my closet and put together the perfect librarian costume – a pencil skirt, a book-themed graphic tee, a cardigan, a bun, and glasses. I grabbed a couple of books off the shelf and it was a hit.  My last minute costume turned out so great that I’ve challenged myself to come up with a costume out of my closet every year.  This year…
