Valentine’s Day Mad Libs

Use this free printable Mad Libs for some silly fun on Valentine’s Day. The story of Cupid gets a real mix up when you let kids use their imagination to fill in the blanks. Great activity for any Valentine’s party or some classroom fun.

Free printable Valentine’s Day mad libs, great classroom activity!

This is a fun and easy win for Valentine’s Day! It would make a great “station” if you are rotating between different valentines activities. It takes approximately 10 minutes to complete and gives the kids an area to draw a picture that goes with their story. Before handing out the Mad Libs you may want to do a quick “lesson” on Cupid and his traditional role and qualities.… Read the rest

I’m excited to share with you all the details from our Circus Themed Teacher Appreciation Week at my son’s elementary school this year. I am part of the Parent Teacher Group and for the last few years I have volunteered to be in charge of Teacher Appreciation Week. I have been SHOCKED at how popular my Travel Themed and Camping Themed posts have been, so give the people more of what they want I guess, so here it is!

Last Day of School Interview

I’m a big scrapbooker and love to capture a little of of my kids on their last day of school. Of course this doesn’t have to be done exactly on the last day of school, any time during the first week of summer is a great time for them to sit down and fill this out (and great summer writing practice too!). If they aren’t great at reading and writing yet you can either ask them the questions and then write down what they say, or have them fill out the parts they can and you fill out the rest.

Camping Theme Teacher Appreciation Week

This post contains affiliate links that help to support my site. See my full disclosure for details.

This year, thanks to COVID we decided to go with the theme, “It’s been a WILD year.” And from there we used hiking, camping and adventure as our inspiration to spoil our teachers (all on a small budget) for Teacher Appreciation Week. I think this can easily be adapted to use every year. I mean, since when are kids NOT wild, right? I’ll share with you today our whole schedule of events along with free printables to help you bang this out! This can be done on a whole school level as a Parent Teacher Organization, or it can be done just on a family level for one individual teacher.… Read the rest

Have you tried Nothing Bundt Cakes? Do you have one near you? Oh my goodness, pure deliciousness. I help out on the Parent Teacher Group at our school so for Administrative Professional’s Day (aka Secretary’s Day) this year we got the school secretaries some individual Bundt cakes. They have the cutest little personal sized ones that are $5 each. And what’s a gift without a punny tag?? And of course I’m going to share that tag with you as a free printable so you can go Bundt cake crazy too!… Read the rest
