Henry's very last day of preschool is Thursday. I can't believer the year has gone by so fast!
I wanted to make his teachers (he has five) a little something as a thank you for the end of the year, but I didn't want to spend a bunch of money either.
I found these cute little 'Thanks for helping me grow' labels here and my inspiration ran from there.
Here's what you need:
- A container. (I found my at Dollar Tree, five for $1.00!)
- Flowers of your choice.
- Pinwheel (I got these 2 for $1.00 also at Dollar Tree!)
- Soil
- Labels
- Scrap paper
- A popsicle stick or bamboo skewer.
Print your labels, pretty them up by gluing them to some pretty scrap paper, and add your flowers and you're good to go! I cute down my pinwheels and skewers so they weren't so tall and taped my label to the stick.
Easy, simple and each one cost less than $3.00! You can't beat that for an adorable gift for that perfect teacher!
March was a busy reading month for me! Here's what I read:
I guess I liked this book. It wasn't bad so to speak, but I didn't love it. I had to force myself to finish it because I felt like there were a lot of dry 'spots' but overall, it was okay. I would recommend it if you really love mysteries.
I'm not gonna lie, totally did not expect what was coming in this one. It's a good mystery/thriller if that's your thing.
Since they are a trilogy, I'm going to group these three together. I loved The Hunger Games series. There were a few very expected parts, but overall, I loved the story. I am a little late on the bandwagon on this one because well, I always am, but if you're looking for something fun and exciting to get wrapped up in, this is definitely a good series to read. The movies were pretty good too, not gonna lie.
This is re-read for me and I actually finished it the first week of April but I'm grouping it in March because I read MOST of it in March. This it the first book in a series and the first time around I read them all at once. This time I am breaking them up a bit. I loved this book almost as much as I loved it the first time. It's very fairy-tale-ish, if that's your thing.
On the 'to-read' list this month is: Me Before You, The Nightingale, and Room. I can't wait to keep chipping away at my challenge!
