Every year, as Christmas approaches I'm always in a mad dash to come up with new ideas to give my children's teachers for gifts. Last year, it was brownies in a jar, this year my local MOPS group made peppermint bark, bagged it, and put cute little tags on it. This year, however, I didn't make enough peppermint bark to go around to all the teachers during craft time. So this year, I thought it would be a neat idea to pass on the peppermint bark to the bus drivers and do something different for the teachers.
While standing in my local Michael's I picked up small weekly calendar pads that had the days of the week down one side and a shopping list down the other side. Along with the calendar pads, they had matching recipe cards, note pads, and blank cards.
The cogs of creativity got to turning in the store and I brought home calander pads and recipe cards. Then it was matter of getting out my Zutter Bind-It-All and with a few small helping hands to punch holes, another to do some artwork, and to-da!
These meal planners came together quite nicely, my son is exspecially proud of the books he made for his teacher as he punched, stamped, and picked out paper to help put them together.
