Excited to have Kristy from The Diary of Dave’s Wife back today!
____________________________________________
Well Back to School Season is right upon us. If your kiddos haven’t already gone back, my guess is that yours will be starting very soon. This week I sent my oldest off to Kindergarten. There were tears, lots of hugs & kisses, and copious amounts of Diet Coke to cope with the momentous occasion. I feel so very fortunate that he has such a wonderful teacher this year. So of course we had to make her a fun treat to start the year off right!
This was seriously SO easy to put together, and who doesn’t LOVE Oreos? I guess if you don’t you could also use any other ” mini ” cookie like Chips Ahoy. Most of the supplies you can pick up from your grocery store or big box store like Target or Wal-Mart.
You will need :
•One box of mini Oreos
• One Plastic Mason Jar Drinking Mug with Straw
•This Free Printable tag printed on white cardstock
• A little bit of cute twine or Ribbon
• Scissors
When filling your Mason Jar with Oreos, I highly recommend keeping your straw in the mug. This way you won’t have to try and jam it in after it’s full of oreos. If there are any extra just pop them in your mouth for easy clean up!
Then you can easily screw on the lid, wrap it in twine and attach the tag.
See I told ya this would be Easy Peasy!
And for under $10 you have a cute and simple treat your kiddos teacher will love!

Oh, the idea is so great! As there are no more teachers in my life with my grown up children now I'm thinking about to give this to my boss 🙂

Yay!! My kindergartener has been reading “If You Give A Mouse a Cookie” this year and I think this will be perfect! I have to purchase gifts for his 2 regular teachers, 2 helper teachers and 2 therapists. I’m going to give them away at his school holiday party on Tuesday. Thank you so much. I spent $.93 to have them printed on cardstock at Staples, $12 for 6 green mason jars on Amazon and $8 for the lids and straws also on Amazon. Ended up spending just under $30 for all 6 gifts!

So cute, and perfect for teacher appreciation week! Can you tell me what font you used? I’d like to coordinate personalized thank you notes with the tags. Thanks!
