Teacher Appreciation Ideas

My precious is busy with exams this week. There's been lots of tears and begging, and that's just me ;O) It's been harrowing, heartbreaking and taxing. I will be so very glad once the month is over.

Once the exams are, finally, over and I know there is no possibility to change the outcome I shall sigh with relief and think about my next project; entertaining my doll over the long summer holiday.

Before we do that I wanted to do something nice for her teachers at school - who are all outstanding. I found these very adorable ideas which I thought I'd share with you all.




Download the PDF from http://www.skiptomylou.org/ , edit to add your child's name and print on card or two sheets of paper glued together.

For more ideas..
