Hey, everyone! This weekend I am teaming up with a bunch of bloggers around the country who have spring fever, baby! We are ready for summer vacation but are filled with ideas and freebies to get you through the last few weeks of the year.
This week was a special week for my kiddos, as we welcomed our families in to our classroom for our annual Family Fun Day! I used to do a Mother’s Day Tea and Donuts with Dad, but over the years my students have had different family compositions that made me decide to change it up. Instead of celebrating each individual parent, I invite the families in to have an end-of-the-year family day to wrap up what we’ve done this year!
Here is a look at what we do for Family Day
and some ideas to get you started!

- Ain’t No Mountain High Enough by Marvin Gaye
- The Best Day by Taylor Swift
- Don’t Blink by Kenny Chesney
I love these ideas! Thanks for sharing!
What great ideas! Thanks for sharing!
Great post! Love the spice up my life gift idea and the poems! And especially the family day! One of my colleagues and I have been talking about doing this next year!
I love this idea, especially given the fact that so many children do not have the "traditional" families of the past with moms and dads – this way everyone can be included no matter who they live with! Thank you for sharing!
What a sweet idea! Thank you for sharing 🙂
What a great way to close out the year!
