a little
first day of school butter ’em up gift!
i like jumbo calculators.
so i picked this one up for $2.50 in the target dollar section.
later that day this cheesy gift idea came to my mind.
(listen people. i can’t help that cheese is always on my mind!)
warning… and funny story about this calculator. it’s numbers are all wacky. when i push the 1 a 2 comes up. when i push the 4 a 5 comes up. that could make addition and multiplication a little difficult. SO… try out all the buttons before you buy one. haha. i did see some other fun colored calculators at walmart in their school section. they just weren’t jumbo.
“my calculations” tags comes in green + blue.
get your calculations sheet here.

A house in chaos says
Super cute idea! I may design a cookie like this to add some "real" butter! I'll send pics if I do and use the tag!

What a great idea. Coincidentally, I was just finishing up an welcome back project for the teachers at our school from the PTO. : )

According to my calculations, you are incredibly creative and fun to read!
Sue says
This is so cute! There are many teachers in our family, and I think they would all love this! Actually, anything other than a mug (they could fill a kitchen cupboard with all they've received)will be appreciated:)
Love the fortune cookies too!
Megan says
I think it's a cute idea…however as a teacher I'm not sure what i would do with it. It would probably end up in my treasure box at some point or would be given away. But it's really cute…
Megan says
Precious!

It is a cute sheet but I cannot download it. I tried 3 times and got this message each time:
"The file is damaged and could not be repaired."

I made these today and they turned out so darling. I put them in a bag with some bright shredded paper. I added a few packs of gum and a bag of jolly ranchers. The effect was darling! Thanks so much!
glitter girl says
I love love love this idea! My niece is here visiting and I was like "lets make this for your teachers!" She said she'd help me make them for my boys, she's a sophomore in HS and 'apparently' isn't into cute & cheesey gifts?!

If one of my students would have brought this to me on the first day of school, I would have had a Secret favorite student. This is adorable! I'm featuring this at somedaycrafts.blogspot.com
