Both of my kids received letters to bring a little goody to pass out to their class members during their Holiday Parties at school.  I wanted to something cute, different and easy.  I came up with this cute little printable on Photoshop and then just printed it out, cut it, and used a permanent tape runner to attach it to snack-size bags of Hershey Candy Cane Kisses!  The kids, parents and teachers all raved about how cute it was.  Oh, how I long for these little drops of peppermint goodness to arrive in stores every holiday season.  They.are.delish. Except that I can’t stop eating them.  So I grab a handful and then make my family take them away from me.

I’m offering these printables on my blog so go here —–> Mrs-Claus-Kisses-Printable-from-SheLeavesALittleSparkle

On another note….How excited am I that there is NO school, NO getting up early and NO homework!  Ohhhhh happy day!!!  Let the fun crafts and activities and outings and holiday baking begin!

This was probably the easiest treat I’ve ever done for my kids’ class parties.  All I did was mix (get a giant mixing bowl for this) a bunch of snacks together and then scoop into waffle cones.  We called this “Harvest Mix Cornucopias” but the idea of mixing snacks was also used in my daughter’s preschool and called a “Friendship Mix”, since each child (or friend) brought something to add to the mix.  So cute, right?  I used:  Cheddar Goldfish Crackers, marshmallows, chocolate chips, candy corn, Chex Muddy Buddies, fall-colored M&M’s (yep…ya gotta sit and pick out the blue and green ones but you can use them later) and pretzel sticks.  It was a hit with all the kids in the class!

And yes….those are Christmas decorations starting to be put up before Thanksgiving…ha! It’s also possible that I’ve been listening to Christmas music since Halloween

*Note: This may not work at all schools or in all classes due to allergies and/or rules.  Check with your teacher first to get approval.  I even double-checked with the Assistant Principal and she said it was just fine as long as there were no classroom allergies.
