Gifts for the Teach...

I know these posts are usually done in April or May, as that is when most kids' school year is over.  Since my girls go to pre-school/daycare in the summer, they don't "graduate" to another class until early August, meaning now is the time to start thinking gift-giving.

I'll admit it.  I am one of those people who used to think... um, I pay a lot for childcare and this is their job, so why do I have to get them gifts all the time?  I have since come to my senses and realize that these ladies have played an important part in my children's lives, and heck, I know my kids.  These ladies deserve gifts for putting up with them some days!  HAHAHAHAHA!

So, on the list of things to make:

Anna's (Noodleheads) Gathered Clutch

ginabean's Teacher Tote

howdoesshe's cute clipboard

or maybe Bloom and Blossoms's fabric-covered journal?

I don't know that I'll be able to choose from these great ideas... but I do know that better get to work!
