An End-of-the-Year Gift Idea for Teachers & Classmates + Free Printable

So I know school just started again, but I never posted about what my son gave his teachers at the end of the school year! Better late than never though! 

Since we were at a new school for his Grade 1 year, I totally recycled the gift idea we used the year before when he was in Kindergarten!

I made up bags of fun orange things and put them in cute orange gift bags with tags that said "Orange you glad it's summer?". He had a teacher and a teacher's assistant in his class, so I needed to make up 2 of these bags.

Each bag contained:

-file folders

-notepad

-notebook

-candle holder

-acrylic drinking cup

-orange container

-package of orange flavoured Kit Kats

- a pack of Fuzzy Peaches

-orange Tic Tacs

-an orange Hawaiian lei necklace

(And I added a small bottle of Diet Coke in the bag for his teacher who loves Diet Coke. I also gave her a 2L Diet Coke decorated with Washi Tape and a card thanking her for teaching my son.)

My son wrote on the tags that we tied to the bags with some cute creamsicle ribbon.

All ready to go!

I attached the tags with these cute paper clips I found at Michael's...

I made the printable tags and then glued a coordinating card on the back from my stash of Project Life supplies...

I made up a printable of the tags. I sized them so that 2 fit on a 4x6 sized print. Then you have 2- 2x3 prints.

I also made up these simple year-end gifts for my son to hand out to all the kids in his class:

My preschooler daughter also handed out a couple to some of her little friends that are younger siblings of kids in my son's class...

I bought the packs of cute bags from Target last year and each kids got a big box of Smarties and a thing of bubbles!

Then I made simple tags on my computer that said "Have a happy summer, Smartie!" and stapled them to the tops of the bags.
