Last Day of School Treat

It's the last day of the school year for Ethan, 2nd grade, and Enzo, Pre-School. We were very fortunate to have had great teachers for them. I also thought that the friendships they made during the year are some that will last throughout High School! This is off the subject but I just heard Enzo shout from his room, "Mommy, Vitaly ate a dead fly!!!!". I think I'll just ignore that. He needs protein in his diet anyway, just teasing. So, I started making Enzo's treats yesterday and made Ethan's at 7:00 am this morning!! Talk about procrastination! I was actually very pleased with them and decided I should share so, here goes.

Enzo's Pre-K Class Treats

Tools:
Baby Food Jars (I used the small meat jars for the kids and larger ones for the teacher)
Spray Paint
Newspaper
Ribbon, Raffia, Twine, whatever you have on hand
Attachment (optional)
Candy of some sort (I used m&ms since I don't like sticky candies)

I measured about 1/4 cup candy for the small jars. I made a paper funnel for Enzo so that there wouldn't be any spills. He used the 1/3 cup scoop to pour.

I sprayed two extra lids since a little guy, who shall remain nameless, decided to check on them while they were alllmost dry! Enzo wanted a candy apple red and they looked great!

I added a little good-bye rhyme that I found online, tied it to the bow and done!

See you later, Alligator!
After a while, Crocodile!
Gotta go, Buffalo!
See you soon, Raccoon!
Be sweet, Parakeet!
Take care, Polar Bear!
In a shake, Garter Snake!
Hit the road, Happy Toad!
Can’t stay, Blue Jay!
Bye-bye, Butterfly!
Give a hug, Ladybug!
Toodle-loo, Kangaroo!
Time to scoot, Little Newt!
‘Till then, Penguin!
Adios, Hippos!
Hasta Mañana, Iguana!
Give a kiss, Goldfish!
Get in line, Porcupine!
Out the door, Dinosaur!
On the bus, Octopus!
To your house, Little Mouse!
Our school year now ends.
So good-bye, my Dear Friends!

Until Kindergarten!
Your friend, Enzo Lane

Ethan's Class Treats!

I almost forgot to include Ethan's 2nd grade class treats. I figured, with his personality and grade, this was a little more appropriate! These were super easy to make. I used round flat cards from Paper Source (my go-to paper place). Ethan pasted the printout (which helped out SO much but I had to look away because of my ODCness!). I used a hot glue gun to affix the smarties and voila! I saw the idea on Pinterest but never found where the idea originated from. Super easy, super fast!
