Every year, I used to struggle with what to get my classroom kids for Christmas! Having 24+ students means that things can add up quickly! I used to get them all the same book! And while that is nice, I saw this idea on Pinterest a few years ago and really loved it! For around $1.50 per student, I can give them a cute gift that they really enjoy! Plus, many students don’t have gloves (or socks if you choose) to keep them warm!

Here’s what you need:
1 Hershey bar per student
1 pair of socks or gloves per student
Ribbon
Snowman Face Template​​

What to do?I used to cover each Hershey bar with white paper every year and DRAW on the faces! This year, I got smart! I created this Snowman Face Templateto make the process go faster! I purchased gloves in a three pack from Wal-Mart for $1.47! Can’t beat that!

After I cover each Hershey bar with the Snowman Face Template, I put the gloves on top, tie the fingers with ribbon, and attach a label to the back that says “Merry Christmas from Mrs. Post”! Easy peasy!

I used to use socks for the hats, but using gloves is a less expensive option!

To my teacher tribe, I hope this makes gift giving a little easier for you!!

​Merry *almost* Christmas to you all!
