Happy Holidays! I was very excited to receive my big cardboard box full of exciting items for my students to enjoy from Oriental Trading. I teach Second Grade and I have to tell you that they absorb everything and they are excited about many things - especially the holidays.
[[Disclaimer: Oriental Trading sent me products in exchange for a blog post, but all opinions in this post are mine.]]
When I search Oriental Trading, I love how I can just go to the categories I need - Holidays/Christmas and who doesn't love sales? They have a great sale section as well.
The "main event" of my student gifts are these adorable penguins. I love the plush toys from Oriental Trading because they are so cute and the kiddos cherish them at this age. These plush toys are currently sold out, but I also would recommend these holiday bears and reindeers. Too cute and they are on major SALE!
The slap bracelets are back! I LOVED these as a child. They are fun to slap on your wrist, but also a fashionable bracelet.
I loved the variety of these but I am hoping that they come out with more of an assortment for boys. There are other slap bracelet assortments that have different themes, but this particular pack will appeal mostly to the girls of my class. It was a nice to have some bracelets with designs and some plain, sparkle ones.
The item I was impressed with the most are these 4 1/2 inch snowflake notepads. For only $5.99, you will receive 24 of these. Very good quality and they were larger than I expected for the price. I have lots of artists and notetakers in second grade so they will love these!
Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas, and Happy Hanukkah! I can't wait to celebrate with my students all about the holidays around the world.
Enjoy my freebie from Teachers Pay Teachers full of writing prompts that you can use before and after the holiday season.
