It’s October and we are settled into a nice Pre-K routine. Miss 5 is really enjoying school and all of the cute activities her teacher comes up with. One of her favorite activities is the Letter Fairy. Every week students work on learning a different letter of the alphabet.
On Mondays, the Letter Fairy visits the class mailbox and places a small object or treat that begins with the letter of the week inside. The kids are so excited by her visits! So far she has brought M- magnifying glass & maraca, C- car, F- fruit snacks, P- pumpkin, N- nerds. Next week, this mama is the Letter Fairy for the letter H. It’s great because next week is also Halloween! So I decided to make this week’s treat extra special and maybe a bit spooky.
How fun are these skeleton hands from Dollar Tree! Hand starts with h! Yippee! I knew we had to somehow work them into our Letter Fairy treat! With a little bit of work, I came up with this cute little saying,
Hands Down
Mrs. xxxxxx’s class
Is the Best in Town!
I printed the saying on some cute Halloween templates I found online.
Now all I had to do was come up with some treats that started with the letter “h”- hummus, hamburger helper, hot cakes, hamburger, hot dog, ham, horehound candy, ho ho, …… And then it came to us! Hot cocoa, Hershey’s (milk chocolate and cookies & cream) and Heath.
We filled each bag with our “H” treats and secured one spooky hand and saying to each with a Halloween ribbon! Voila! One spooky “hands” down bag! Can’t wait to see what the kids think of it!
Happy Halloween from the Letter Fairy!!!
