Gift Ideas...Low Prices

As the holiday season approaches, there are some things that I think will be great gifts for your little learners. For small gifts, some "homework bags" are good. A lot of my students don't return homework because they don't have pencils, crayons, scissors or glue sticks at home. I don't know if it strue, but its good to get if you are looking for a small gift to give. Jigsaw puzzles are great and inexpensive. They can travel, they can be done over and over, they improve problem solving skills and fine motor skills. Books, for obvious reasons. Take your kid to get a library card. They can use it throughout the year checking out books on topics they love, cd's, DVD's, cd-roms and other stuff. Kids are able to to get items that interest them, participate in activities, contests and much more. Finally, a journal and possibly a camera. It allows kids to document their year through words and pictures. It is something that they can keep forever and appreciate for a lifetime.
