Magnetic Lapel Pins my kids made for their teachers!
Teacher Appreciation Week is May 3rd through May 7th!
Valley Oaks Elementary school has planned many cool events for the teachers during this week: Monday they were all treated to a Continental Breakfast, Tuesday the kids decorated their teacher's doors, on Wednesday and Thursday all teachers are getting 15 minute chair massages, and on Friday each teacher will be receiving a dessert of their choice! PLUS, all teachers will be getting a 'daily surprise' of some sort! During all of this, the students have been asked to write a special note, color pictures, or give their teacher a gift... we chose the spirit of 'gift-giving'!
In the past I had made interchangeable necklaces using bottle-tops, pictures of just about anything that will fit inside of a 1" circle, a VERY strong magnet, a washer, and a few tiny decorations! So, instead of making the bottle-top into a necklace, we made magnetic lapel pins for each teacher using special pictures in relation to their teaching job. Then we glued a 'tag' on the back with the magnet and wrote a special note on the tag!
The kids really enjoyed helping me make these, and I hope the teachers enjoy them too!
