End of the School Year Gifts

A parent in Bailey's class suggested we all get together for Teacher Appreciation Week and for the End of School gift. We all pitched in some cash and for Teacher Appreciation Week the kids made a card and brought flowers for the teachers and on one day a parent picked up Starbucks for breakfast and on another day someone delivered lunch. For the end of the school year gift each child was to decorate a sheet of paper and dictate something about each teacher and all the pages will be bound together. (And they'll each also get a gift card.) Well, she has four teachers so we've been working hard today on four pictures. (One teacher is also leaving this year so we had to make another page for another book for her too) She made ladybugs and butterflies - her two favorites! Well, four pictures pretty much took up most of our day.

First we mod podged tissue paper on card stock.

Here's what Bailey's ladybug and butterfly looks like.
(The parent who's putting this together printed
each child's name on card stock.)

And we're done!
Added the dictation portion, Bailey's signature and her photo.
Now we need to remember to take them with us to school Tuesday!
