If the kids are taking them home to do something with them ... are you providing full instructions to the parents as to what to use, to ensure their work can be made permanent? And not disappear with the first wash?
What a kind and generous gift to this teacher.
PS ... don't forget to have the kids print/sign their names
Is this what you were thinking of? Go with it!!!!! That is so neat. Did they see this? I would consider that neutral. (sorry didn't read all the posts before posting other)
