Christmas Catch Up: Elf Capades

I don't know how ANYONE has been able to blog in December... kudos to you!  It's been crazy with Christmas here in Kindergarten, but now that we're on break (praise the Lord) I'm ready to catch up with everyone!  Today's a look back on some moments with our elf on the shelf. Our elf package arrived one week into December after we wrote a letter to Santa asking for one.  I put the package in the freezer so it was nice and cold, then our sweet school secretary delivered it in the morning.  The kids all wanted to feel how cold it was! You can grab the cute free label from Cara Caroll by clicking here . Then we had to name our elf, of course.  Thunder was the final winner!  (Sorry for the poor picture.  The light in my room stinks!) Thunder was a great elf!  He brought us gingerbread treats when we studied Christmas in Germany... and ate the head off one!  We recorded each day's antics in our Elf Journals. You can grab these cute fre

What in the World Have We Been Up To: Week 13 of Thankfulness

I can't believe I'm back and posting somewhat regularly!  (We'll see for how long...) Totally missed my Bloggiversary AND my birthday though.  Sorry guys!  BUT I can promise a good long post with some fun ideas and freebies ahead.  :) Here's what we've been up to in Kinder Krazy Week Before Thanksgiving Land... Turkey Hand Prints and Picture Frame Gifts Aren't these adorable?!  And they were super easy to make.  I picked up the unfinished wooden frames at Michael's for only $1 (I also saw Walmart has some).  The buttons were ridiculously expensive though.  Why are buttons so expensive?!?! Pilgrim Craftivity I can't believe how many craftivities we completed this week!  I go back and forth with these things.  On the one hand I'd rather we be making something authentic, like a class book.  On the other hand I need cute things for our hallway.  Hence these paper plate pilgrim cutie pies (which followed after an illustrative mi
