What is Elf on the Shelf?

Elf on the Shelf is a Christmas Tradition. The tradition has a book and a elf doll. The book is poetic and in rhyme sharing the purpose of the Elf’s visits. The Elf visits each Thanksgiving. He/She goes and returns from the North Pole each evening. Every morning he can be found in a new location in the house. The Elf has been found in the refrigerator, fishing in the toilet, writing messages on the mirror or hanging from the lights. It is VERY IMPORTANT, the Elf is not touch each evening or his Christmas magic will be lost! Each family is able to name their special elf. The elves return to their home (Santa’s North Pole Work shop) every Christmas Eve. An Elf’s Story can also be found on DVD

Easter Egg-cellent Gift Tag

I am always on the hunt for a teacher appreciation printable – you know me! Last year we made these Some Bunny Gift Tags.

You’re the best teacher some bunny could ask for!

This year we are back with a new Egg-cellent Teacher Gift Tags, but also adorable tags for your coach, neighbor and friend. We have everyone covered (just call them a friend if they don’t fit in teacher, coach or neighbor!)

Egg-cellent Gift Tag

You can use these Egg-cellent gift tags with most anything, but we especially love yellow tulips. Tied with a blue gingham ribbon would be adorable, no?

Teacher Gift Ideas

Hear me out. Teacher gifts don’t have to be much. When you are at the grocery store, grab a candy bar during checkout. Getting coffee before you drop your kids off at school, Thank Them a Lattee by picking up an extra cup for them. Spending a $1 or $5 says thank you! I try to do it seasonally, just to remind them I know how great they are!

We have plenty of other teacher gift ideas that aren’t mugs!

New Lanyard
Gift Cards (more Punny Teacher ideas here)
A Movie Night
A Cup of Coffee
A Chocolate Bar
Markers

What is You’ve Been Booed?

You’ve Been Booed is a loved Halloween Tradition for family and friends. It’s often done in a neighborhood, as part of the process is to ring a doorbell and run. Don’t worry, there are no tricks with this ding, dong, ditch, but rather left behind is a lovely bag of candy or a basket of Halloween treats. Then the recipient becomes the gift giver and the fun Halloween tradition is passed along throughout the neighborhood.

You’ve Been Booed Instructions

What are the you’ve been booed instructions? The instructions are simple. This Halloween traditions starts with one giver who prints a you’ve been booed poem.

Fall is here, the air is crisp,
To celebrate this little Halloween gift.

It was made especially for you,
It’s a sweet surprise named a boo.

Secret friends have left it here,
To bring your family some holiday cheer.

Enjoy your treats, they are yours to keep.
No one will tell who left this treat.

Attach your boo sign where it can be seen,
make sure to leave it there until Halloween.

The gifter secretly leaves (boos) two more houses with a tasty treat. They leave behind the printed you have been boo’ed poem, sign and ring the door bell and run.

The receiver hangs the “we’ve been boo-ed sign” so it is visible on the front door or window for others to see. They return the favor and become the gifter to two more neighborhood homes. The process continues until the neighborhood is boo-ed.

What to Put in a You’ve Been Booed Basket?

Include the you have been booed poem. You can include directions to boo friends on the back of your boo poem. For 2020, we decided not to bake anything and boo-ed friends with enclosed Halloween candy bags. It was very simple and kept the exchange of germs down. Other you’ve been booed gift ideas include the following…

You’ve Been Booed Ideas

Bagged Halloween Candy

‘Tis the season for giving. These Free Printable Gift Tags for Christmas will step-up your present game. Adorable personalized gift tags, gift tags for kids and adults!

Free Printable Gift Tags for Christmas

Truthfully, this round-up was a little bit difficult. Maybe people are not using gift tags anymore on presents (are you?) Whether people are using labels or not, the internet didn’t have as many “Pinterest Worthy” gift tags as I would have assumed.

I have to admit, I don’t use gift tags often. In fact, the way I label the kids presents from Santa is with photo stickers I pick up from Shutterfly. I just add a photo of them this year, choose a different color frame for each child, and then write their name on the label. This is how they identify which gift is for them on Christmas morning.

These Shutterfly photo stickers come in a back of 24, which is always enough to get me through Santa’s gifts. They are $6.99 but often go on sale for much less.
