By Sherri Osborn, About.com

Make this simple appreciation gift for your teachers, shared by KIDSMOM7.

Materials:

  • Bowl
  • Candy as Explained Below

Instructions:
For teacher appreciation week - I got a bowl from the 99 cents store and painted Teacher appreciation Bowl on it. Everyday I put a different sign in it:

  1. On Monday the sign said "You are lifesaver to our kids! Thank you for all your hard work" (I then filled the bowl with individual wrapped Lifesavors.)
  2. On Tuesday the sign said, "You plant the seeds of knowledge in out children (I put individual bags of sunflower seeds in it)
  3. On Wednesday the sign said "Because of you our kids are not Dum Dums! (I filled the bowl with Dum Dum suckers)
  4. On Thursday the sign said "Hugs and Kisses for everything you do ( filled the bowl with three bags of hugs and kisses)
  5. On Friday the sign said "You deserve a "Carefree" week-end. You are a much appreciated group of teachers and staff! (I filled the bowl with Carefree gum)

There are lots of other ideas that you can use such as smarties candies and 100 grand bars - You are worth a grand, etc.
