Early Childhood Blog Hop - ARRRGGH you ready for back to school?

Are you ready for Back to School?  Or are you like me and your teacher bag is still in the garage? Not matter how much I procrastinate, it's coming (and many of you may already be back).  I'm teaming up with a great group of early childhood teachers for some fun giveaways to give you a head start!  This blog hop is hosted by Erin at Kindergarten Dragons! If you haven't checked out her blog, you need to, she's been working so hard this summer to share tons of ideas from kindergarten classroom! 

I'm giving myself one more weekend before I get back into my classroom, but my computer, printer and laminator have been working pretty hard at home!  I love my new Rainbow Decor Bundle, I can't wait to give my classroom a fresh look this year.

 To help you get your classroom ready, I'm giving one away to a lucky winner...plus a $10.00 credit to my store!  Check out the rafflecopter below for your chance to win!

Five for Friday

Time for Five for Friday, hosted by Doodle Bugs Teaching!  Here are five random things that have been keeping me busy this week!

 

1. I love my new Rainbow Décor Bundle, I can't wait to decorate my room with these this year!  I like to keep thing simple in my Pre-K classroom, these posters are colorful, but won't be too distracting in my room.  Did I mention that having your own laminator at home is the most convenient thing EVER? Totally worth the cost, this laminator was under $20.00, and I order the laminating sheets from Amazon once in a while.

          

2. I made my Teacher Tool Kit two years ago and it still looks great!  I going to reevaluate when I get into my classroom, and maybe switch out some of the labels.

 

3. My boys had their last day of summer preschool today!  It was such a great program and they really enjoyed it, I had to whip up some easy gifts for their teachers. I save these pretty bottles from my husband's juice, and then whenever I need a gift I can just grab a flower arrangement and make a quick tag.  I made four gifts for $10.00 from this one bouquet!

 

4. Here's another one of my go-to gifts....a gift certificate to one our local ice cream shops and this cute printable.  I made this a couple of years ago and saved it to my computer, it's so simple to pull up and update with a personalized message.  Plus, who doesn't love an excuse to go get some ice cream? These are for my daughter's cheerleading coaches.

              

 

5. Thank you to A+ Images for my amazing blogger t-shirt!  I can't wait to wear this to my next TpT meet-up, or just around the house!  If you are a teacher blogger, check out their site and you may be able to order a FREE shirt.  I also love the other options...grade level, holiday, first day of school, class pictures...tons of fun shirts!
