My Project

Wow! Everyone loves to celebrate birthdays! Can you guess who loves to celebrate more? FIRST GRADERS! I would love to make their birthday something they will never forget!

Help me make their birthday EXTRA special!

I would love to make cup presents for each student. Every cup will include a pencil, a bookmark, a bracelet, a balloon, a birthday crown, and grass filler. Presents are special, but a classroom birthday is something to remember! I can not wait to celebrate with each student.

Thank you for making their birthday extra special!
