Each time one of my children has a birthday, I try and get creative about what I can bring into the classroom for school treats since our school doesn’t allow homemade goods. My oldest daughter’s birthday lands on Earth Day and last year, we used that as our theme for the entire celebration. I’m working […]
Science Snacks for School Birthday Celebration
October 3, 2013 by 1 Comment
I’ve written several times in the past about the creative ideas I’ve come up with for bringing in birthday treats at school, since our school doesn’t allow any homemade goods. It’s kind of become a big thing now, and I’m afraid to show up with typical cupcakes now. When I took in treats for my […]
8 is great! Ideas to celebrate
October 1, 2012 by 46 Comments
My son turned 8-years-old last month! For our family, 8 is a very special birthday, because that is when our children are old enough to be baptized in our church. For that reason, I do 8 year-old birthdays a little differently. I don’t throw a big friend party (like the robot, rocket, pirate, etc., parties […]

I’m getting ready to take treats into my son’s school classroom tomorrow, and it reminded me that I have never posted the treats I took for my daughter’s birthday in the Spring.

I’ve also had this #10 donut treat pinned numerous times. Lately, I’ve had several people request a printable topper that they can download and use […]
Smore Fun Classroom Treats

In the tradition of my non-traditional classroom treats, I’m sharing the smores I will be taking to my son’s class in about an hour in honor of his birthday. Like many other schools around the nation, our school has a ban on homemade food for class parties. We could launch into a discussion about whether […]
Terrific 10 Classroom Treats
April 27, 2011 by 23 Comments
If you recall from my robot treat post, schools in our area don’t allow parents to bring in homemade goodies for kids on their birthdays. For most parents, this should be a relief or a free pass to go to the store and pick-up the bakery cupcakes without feeling an iota of guilt about not […]
Robot Birthday Treats

I think I mentioned that my son turned 6 this weekend. We decided to postpone his robot birthday party for a couple of weeks (and were able to take a fast but fun family getaway), but there was still some celebrating to be done! On Friday, I took goodies to his class at school to […]
