A little background story on our childcare centre (ccc) hunting woes... The childcare centres near my place are all in hot HOT demand because it's a new neighbourhood with lots of young families with young kids. 2 years ago, hubby and I went on a ccc hunt and we were put on so many waiting lists, we lost count. Of cos there are those few with vacancy but they are either too expensive, out of the way, or we don't really feel comfortable with the school. In the end, gor gor spent a year in a private ccc which is still... affordable, not that far but was at least 10 minutes drive away and main problem was.. Ian doesn't seems to be learning much and he was basically playing all the time, not constructive, educational type of play but play-till-mad type of play. No good.
So boy were I glad and relieved when the kids were accepted in the childcare centre just 2 minutes walk away from home. Most importantly, the teachers and principal in this school are really good. Gor gor is a really active and mischievous boy who is always trying to push his and everyone else's limits, but the teachers are so patient with him. Not only advising him but also kept up communication with me frequently, updating me on his improvement and also advising me on how I should coach him at home. To show our appreciation, we decided to give every teacher in school a DIY gift bag with a little gift inside.
It took us some time to prepare all the bags. I did most of the work with the kids doing the finishing touches.
These were the bags we made.
Fold in the 2 top corners of the brown paper bag.
I used puncher to punched out these smaller sized scalloped circles.
Glue these on and use a black marker to draw the eyes
2 of the completed bags. Arn't they beautiful? Hope the teachers like them :)
