Teacher Appreciation Baskets!

We're so excited to put together our Teacher Appreciation Baskets this year!

(Here's what they looked like last year - we gave them to our teachers at the graduation!  Yay!)

We need lots of help with them, though, so please go to this Pinterest link below for ideas,
and then leave a COMMENT on this blog post with what you'd like to do.
(or send me an email at joy@mysunshinepreschool.com )

Please note: Keep in mind that we need you to make FOUR of the same thing you choose,
because each teacher's basket will be the same.  They need to be finished by Tuesday May 14
at 7 p.m. so we can compile them all into baskets at our next Parent Committee meeting.

Of course, you don't have to do anything at all, or you can even do your own thing if you want, but we're trying to make sure we show our teachers in a BIG way how much we love them!  Thanks for your help!!!

PS: We also need:
- 4 HUGE sheets of clear cellophane to wrap baskets in
- 4 large bows
- 4 cards for the teachers
- 4 name tags (Malia, Christina, Diana, Sara)

Here are  lots of facts about our teachers' favorite things!

Favorite Color:
Malia: Purple
Diana: Plum/Burgundy
Sara: Bright Pink
Christina: Red

Top 10 Favorite Snacks/Candies:
Christina: Fruit like pineapple, strawberries, clementines, grapes, cantaloupe, watermelon, etc.
Sara: Peanut butter M&Ms, Skittles, Hershey chocolate, Bit of Honey, Sour Patch Kids, Kit Kats, Cherry Laffy Taffy
Diana: All kinds of fruit
Malia: Popcorn (Pop Secret Homestyle), Dark Chocolate with almonds or sea salt, chocolate covered gummi bears, Reece's peanut butter cups, malt balls, sour patch kids, Lindor balls

Favorite Drinks:
Malia: Diet Coke
Christina: Water
Sara: Water or Dr Pepper
Diana: Vitamin water XXX with the black label

As ideas are chosen, I'll post their pictures here below with who's in charge of them:
