Holiday gifts for students (that won't break the bank!)

Almost every teacher wants to buy a holiday gift for each of their students--but with classes of 30+ kids......it just gets too darn expensive!

As a reading interventionist I service around 60 students, so I am always on the hunt for something festive and inexpensive. Thus....I use treat tags! Treat tags are a wonderful option--simple, relatively low cost and fun! Click the image below if you would like download the Elf Kisses treat tags FOR FREE! I simply staple the treat tag to a ziplock back with a few Hershey kisses inside! You don't have to use Hershey kisses....you could really do any treat!


Need a holiday treat tag for your students?

Using treat tags are a perfect way to put a smile on the faces of your students without breaking the bank!

    In the past, I have also gifted my students with "rudolphs."  To make these adorable reindeers, you use tootsie pops and a printable pattern.  Click  here or the image below to take you to the blog post--it will give you directions and the free printable pattern to use!


    If you just want to celebrate with your class, but not purchase gifts there are lots of festive party ideas to do!

    • Hot Chocolate Bar-- Set up a hot cocoa drink station with fun mix-ins (candy canes, chocolate chips, whip cream, marshmallows, etc.)  Let the students sip the hot cocoa as the color, watch a movie or play games.
    • Build Gingerbread Houses-- Have students build their own gingerbread houses using graham crackers, icing and various candy materials.  Students could also work in teams to complete the structures.
    • Cookie Decorating--bring cookies and decorating supplies and let the student's creativity fly!  Students could enjoy their baked creations as the watch a movie or play games.  For an extra layer of fun--make it a cookie decorating competition! 
    • Holiday Sing-A-Long--create a playlist of your favorite carols and have a class sing-a-long party.
