Teacher Style for St. Patrick’s Day
These are my favorite posts – I LOVE curating these lists of everything that I love for celebrating holidays in the classroom and sharing them with you. St. Patrick’s Day has a special place in my heart because I do have some Irish roots. Here are my picks for the perfect holiday teacher fashion! (All are affiliate links).

This one is oversized and full of character, it’s also just the right color that it can easily be worn any day of the year without screaming “I bought this for St. .Patrick’s Day.” Wooden rainbow earrings – These are so chic,…

Halloween must-haves for teachers
My love of all holidays is no secret – truly one of my favorite things about teaching is the excuse to go all in when it comes to celebrations. Halloween is no exception! From my wardrobe to classroom supplies, I’ve been scoping out all of the Halloween fun. Here’s what is currently on my Amazon wish list (all links are affiliates). Ghost earrings – How cute are these?! I love that they dangle a little, but won’t be too heavy to wear all day. They’re pretty small, so they also won’t be too easy for little hands to grab.

My favorite things – 2022 Edition
I can’t say goodbye to 2022 without sharing my favorite Amazon purchases! I love to review these because they say so much about the things that were on my mind throughout the year. It’s like a little time capsule right there in my order history. Here are the items that I’d definitely recommend: Printable vinyl sticker paper – I taught myself how to make stickers with my Cricut, and I’ve gone through so much of this printable vinyl! It’s really easy to use and prints really well. Instant Frother – I’ve really been trying to kick the Starbucks habit (or at least reign it in a little), and this has…

Fun Fine Motor Products
My favorite thing about fine motor activities is how simple they are to set up. Just a few easy materials can make for a great learning experience. Some of the best fine motor materials are things that you already have around the house – clothespins, tongs, spoons, shoelaces, and rubber bands. All of these can be used to encourage a variety of fine motor skills, but it’s still fun to add specialized products every once and a while. Here are some fun fine motor products that your kiddos would love (all links are affiliates). Hand tongs! BBQ Grill game Nuts and Bolts building set Trail mix stringing set Pop Beads…
