Teacher Gifts 2025
I’m so excited about how this year’s teacher gifts turned out! Even the gift wrap is adorable – if I may say so myself. I scooped up this apple fabric when our local JoAnn Fabrics was clearing out all of it’s stock. I knew that it could make me many years worth of teacher gifts, or something cute for my daughter’s traditional first day of school apple outfit. The zip pouches are quilted and have a red picnic-blanket patterned lining. It all comes together – quite literally – with a red zipper. To wrap them up I grabbed some plain white gift bags at the Dollar Tree. With a ruler…

As she’s transitioned to elementary school and needing an alarm clock it’s been a more gentle kind of alarm clock. Happy Planner – I’ve become a true convert, I love my Happy Planner. Being able to add pages anywhere means that…

Back to School Systems
Back to school season comes with the stress of new routines, new faces, and getting used to new schedules. Putting a few easy systems in place at the beginning of the year can alleviate some of the chaos and help you focus on the things that truly need all of your attention. These are the non-negotiable systems that I stick to in order to help things run smoothly. These are systems that I use to help the school year run smoothly, but I also continue most of them year-round. Reading a list like this can make it seem like I’ve got it all together – but things definitely still fall…

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…
