I am hoping to provide my students with several options of Christmas presents that they can make for their loved ones for the holidays. As a mom of school aged children now, I realize how special it is to get a keepsake (that's actually worth saving and even displaying) from my daughter for the holidays. Those are some of my most treasured gifts each year. These supplies will provide my students many options for cute and creative gifts for their parents. Some of the gifts that I've been given by my daughter are so special, and I love to have my children make homemade gifts for their grandparents at home, but I don't think many of my students have put the time and love into making a quality gift for their own family members and I want to provide them with that opportunity, with your help.
These materials would provide students many options for gifts for their parents and other caregivers.
The frames will be utilized to frame either a class picture with a poem that they write or a letter to their parents about their favorite part of the seasons or some other creative but insightful prompt. The puff paints and towels go together, as handprinted towels with either Christmas trees or snowflakes are absolutely adorable, but can be used year round by family members. Empty ornaments are a blank canvas and can be filled with a picture of students, a handwritten note, a poem cut into strips, or a small clay figurine scene, or turned into a pom-pom monster with wiggly eyes...all with a little ribbon for pizzazz.
Students also find the time to work as an amazingly positive social opportunity that would fill the last days of school wonderfully if this gets funded soon enough.
