This is a fun Mother's Day Craft!
Includes step-by-step instructions, decorations and templates needed to create a Mother's Day Cake for Mom. All students have to do is color, cut and glue!

Students can choose their cake plate and then 3 different layers of cake to create a Mother's Day cake. I have also included 3 templates that are complete in case you run out of time or have crafters who find cutting and designing a bit difficult.
Requires: Paper, glue, coloring pencils and scissors.
Mothers will love this item!!! Enjoy and Happy Mother's Day!
These are great Thanksgiving Crafts!
Includes step-by-step instructions and templates needed to create the following:
1 Football Player
2 Cheerleaders

I have included blank templates so that the students can make their own uniforms for the football player and the cheerleader. I made sure that the uniforms I made were very generic!
Requires: Paper (light cardstock would be extra special), glue, coloring pencils and scissors.
Enjoy and Happy Thanksgiving to you, your family and your students.
This is an adorable Favor Box. I am always looking for a new idea to use for the Holiday Season. Students use this template to create a great gift for a loved one. It is the perfect size for a bar of soap. They can add a small note or a few sweets!
This package includes the template (inside box and outside cover) and a few holiday gift tags to adorn the top of the box.
My nephew, who is in grade 2, just made a box for his mom for Christmas! Instructions are detailed with photos to assist for putting the gift box together.
You will need scissors, glue, paper (double sided paper would be extra special) and a treat to put inside the finished box (soap is a great Christmas idea).
This is a really fun craft to use with the new Dr. Seuss book, What Pet Should I Get?

- each craft idea has 4 templates, which all fit on one piece of paper
- each template has a simple writing activity about the particular pet
What you need:
- paper, scissors, glue
- if you want to hang the craft or use it as a puppet, you will need string and popsicle sticks
- I used regular paper, using light cardstock would be great!
Letters to Santa - a really fun Christmas craft - made from just 1 1/2 sheets of paper. When finished, the Letters to Santa will stand about 6" tall. Have also included a larger version of the same craft.
Included is a template that the students will color, cut and then glue together! It's a great Christmas keepsake. Or, you can have the students make Letters to Santa ahead of time and use them to decorate the classroom.
Made from regular photocopy paper (8 1/2 x 14), all students require are coloring pencils, scissors and glue (glue sticks recommended).
Note - The picture shows a little girl holding a Letter to Santa. I have also included a template of a little boy holding a Letter to Santa.

To design: choose a head and a body, add a nose, mouth and teeth or tongue.
Then color the items and glue to the paper bag. The monster is created. The fun part will be to see how many variations will be created within your class! Students can add things to the body of their monster as they see fit!
Have created these so that the heads / body will slightly hand over the edges of the bag.
