"Kiss Your Brain!"

Check out what I discovered "hiding" in my "Craft Room"

 (read room where everything school and photo related gets dumped)!

I've been enjoying some "Pinterest Time" to debrief from this mornings band camp...

First the Bass Drums had sectionals in the room I was working.....

Then the Sousaphones arrived!  Gotta remember the Advil tomorrow :)

I really do enjoy the camp and the kids....but there's a REASON I teach First Grade :)

So...back to the Pinterest Get Away....

I pinned this cute idea from Mrs. Bond's Fantastic First Grade Website

I love the Dr. Jean song and we "Kiss Our Brains" quite often in my class....but how cute would this be to sometimes award a very thoughtful and unique idea/response with a real Hersey's Kiss?

Enter my "find" in the montage of a craft room...

Is this not perfect to sit in the classroom and entice the kids to really put some thought into their answers?

I took all the stuffing out and added two buttons on the sides of the seams ....

To each button, I added a sticky velcro dot.

Now....when someone deserves an extra special kiss on their brain...they can get a nice chocolatey treat....not to mention, when the teacher might need a little chocolate kiss too :)

Thanks to Mrs. Bond's Fantastic Idea....

Enjoy your day!
