I love when the seasons change. And well, we don't have many seasons in Southern Cali, I still like to have fun getting into the spirit of the seasons.
I think its fantastic that they're teaching the children about different seasons and holidays.
SO, since I love shopping, and especially love shopping at the Dollar Tree or any type of discount store, Jacob and I made our way to see what goodies we could find. And also, went in search of some inspiration.
Okay, as mentioned before, I have a bit of a shopping problem. So I gave myself a budget. I said, I could only spend $20.00. I have to be honest and realistic with myself. I couldn't say that I was JUST going to buy the decorations and walk out. I knew that I was going to also buy some things for the house.
I started with going through the Easter aisle and found cute cut outs that the kids could place on the windows and walls. I also found tissue paper flowers that you can hang. They had pink, baby blue and green; 2 per pack. I may just keep them for myself and do something creative with them.
Then I saw a display of artificial flowers. They had roses, daisy's, cherry blossoms and even stargazer lilies. The whole thing looked liked spring. I decided to bring the cherry blossoms home with me.
Next, I found the St. Patty's day decoration and bought a few leprechaun hats and shamrocks. They didn't really have too many things for classroom. So will do though.
I made my way to the school aisle and found charts that I could use with Frankie. One of them said "Job Chart" and the other was blank. I also purchased a Yo Gabba Gabba book that we could read at bedtime.
I bought a few other things for the home like Fabuloso (it's FABULOUS!) and a few frozen items.
I have to say that I went over budget.... the total was $23.00 so it wasn't horrible. I'm still very proud of myself.
I couldn't wait to come home and see how my creativity is sparked by all the spring things I found.
Take a trip to the dollar store. What are some items that spark your imagination.
