A couple of things...the end of the school year is fast approaching and if you haven't thought of getting a teacher in your life a present it might be a good idea. There are lots of fab ideas out there but you know I'm going to advocate for some lovely stationery (that maybe they could use throughout the next year...sending lovely notes home to moms and dads just like you about how great your kids are). Or at least write the teacher a nice card or better yet have your child do it. I'm also a sucker for cool post-it notes & Starbucks' cards.
"Mom, I'm bored!" Oh my gosh did you hear that already? Hopefully not...but maybe a good time to do the penpal thing if my penpal post didn't inspire you earlier perhaps you are thinking it over now. Or write a note or send a care package to a relative (photos, letter, treats). Is someone coming to visit you this summer or maybe you are going to visit someone else - send them a little, "I'm so excited" mail to get the anticipation going!
Here is a cool idea - Send a scavenger hunt to someone - they can send you a picture of all the items once they've found them (one picture or a picture for each one). Then they could send one to you (okay, I just thought of this and now I think I may need to try it today!).
Find a frog! |
Find a red balloon! |
So they could be things to do or things to find.
(adults or kids can do this)
A book page with your name on it.
A buttercup.
A heart shaped rock or rock with a stripe on it.
A coin from the year you were born.
Something that starts with the letter M.
Here are some ideas to get you started!
Have fun!
