Parents are So Special! {A Little Giveaway}

I like to be a bit ahead on things.  You never know what will come your way if you wait until the last minute.  Absent students.  Broken laminators.  You know they all happen at *just* that right moment!

So, next week we're going to start working on our Mother's Day gifts.  I like all the fun crafty things on Pinterest.  Like, maybe this...

Nothing too fancy, because let's face it, I'm not THAT crafty! But, our main Mother's Day gift each year is a special Mother's Day Magazine that my kiddos make all by themselves.  I figure that moms have probably been getting the crafts with a few words/sentences up until now.  But, as second-graders my kiddos should be able to express themselves through words - and how special is that!

We make this six-page magazine that turns out simply adorable!  They're able to show their love of all the special things mom does for them and I'm sure it becomes a treasured keepsake.  

Now, I know that we're not in school when Father's Day rolls around, but it just breaks my heart to think about those special daddies not getting a little gift, too.  So before the end of the year we always create a special magazine to "put in a secret place" until that special day rolls around.

The Father's Day magazine is an 8-page layout in a special "Sports Illustrated" style.  They turn out hilarious...I especially love the "All-Star Driver" and "Homerun Hitter" pages....you learn so much about their family lives! ;)
