Shaving Cream Easter Eggs

Dear future kids,

You will never experience dying eggs the old fashioned way because your mom tried this is and it was 39487 times easier. LOL

No, but for real. I have been trying to keep everything 'normal' for my little Kinder babies. One thing I do every year is boil a million eggs (normally last minute and am up until 2AM) and let them dye them at school. It is ridiculous every year, but I love the memories. I saw this online and wanted to try it so I figured why not try it while distant teaching/learning?

Materials: eggs, water, vinegar (I didn't use it though), food coloring, shaving cream

Mess Factor: not much mess (tip: use baking soda to remove food coloring off hands)

Boil eggs. I have read to soak in vinegar for 20 minutes, but I honestly forgot and it still worked.

Put shaving cream in a tray, bowl, cup cake tin, or on a plate like I did. Add some food coloring of choice.

Roll your eggs in it. Set out on a paper towel or plate for 10-20 minutes and then wipe off the shaving cream...and DONE! So simple. The longer you leave it on, the brighter the colors turn out.

Happy crafting!

End of the Year Gifts/Prep

I was so sad to see the end of the year come. I feel like I needed more time with them! I did my normal bag of stuff: memory book, year of crafts, award, and a key chain! These are the bags I use. You can get them on Amazon, but make sure you get the size that is at least 9x12. I've made the mistake of getting the smaller ones before lol. This is the memory book I use. I've changed it over the years, but I just simplified it down. You can edit it in Canva, google slides, or PP! You could also use this, but it's more for one student. I used it as a moving away book, but if you started this early, you could make a book for each student. I did the key chains again. I do not suggest doing a whole class picture because it's so small. The selfie works so much better! Click here for the tag and click here for the key chain photo frames . Every year I hold onto the crafts. I usually just stack them and then we spend some time at the end of the year passing them out. This year...

Kid's Door Decor

If you want to skip the reading and go right to the door decor pack click here! So I did something wild yesterday. I let my kids decorate the door... A few years ago I said I wanted to put up a new door every month. The kids love when the door is decorated to something new. I lasted maybe 2 months LOL. I try to decorate it at the beginning, but it is such a pain. It always falls down, I can't get it straight, etc etc etc. Well last week one of my co-worker's decorated her door. It was a spring door with flowers and my kids of course were in awe. "Let's decorate our door!" So yesterday morning during my morning coffee I randomly thought to make a packet of things they could decorate the door with. It is homeschool at school in our classroom so I thought, I'll give them the stuff and some examples and they can decorate it together. I told them in the morning about it so they were pumped when it was time. I printed out all the stuff ahead of time and cut it into ...
