I'm working really REALLY hard to give myself grace and mercy and to focus on what I HAVE done versus what I have NOT done.
Thanks for bearing with me! Btw, there are some Amazon Affiliate links in this post, which means if you click and order I will receive a small commission at no cost to you.
Last year you might have snagged up my "You're o-fish-ally" tags...from this post.
But this year I really would like to give my students a bag of goldfish crackers AND a glow stick...but I didn't want to prep two gift tag items...
Then this saying hit me like a ton of bricks...
While I was trying to ignore my daughter's tantrum today, I quickly left the area and wrote it down on a post-it so I wouldn't lose it later on.
I only need first grade, but I have grades pre-k through 5th grade.
When I printed them on my amazing HP color laser printer, I set the pdf to print two pages on one so that eight smaller tags printed on each page. The pdf is set up for four per page...cuz that's the best I could do while crazily multi-tasking.
I typically order a box of goldfish crackers and a family size bag of Swedish Fish (I put the Swedish Fish in ziplock baggies unless I am able to score those Swedish Fish mini-bags like what you see around Halloween.)
I usually have a basket with all three options (goldfish, Swedish Fish, non-food option) available and have the parents help supervise the choosing.
Some schools and families prefer non-food options, so here are some options I've used the last few years (whichever option is the least expensive is the route I go):

fish shaped gel pens (packs of 12)
fish squeeze water squirter (packs of 12)
shark stackable pencil (packs of 12) HUUUGE HIT!!!
UPDATE: I added a red background option (for the Swedish Fish!) AND a plain background for each grade, too! Why? You can print the plain background on any of your favorite colored paper! My favorite is always Astrobrights!
Of course I want to share them with you! So just click here or on the top picture to download them!
Those are super cute! I am sure your kiddos are going to love them, and I am super impressed that after making all those adorable gifts that you still had time to whip up dinner! Wonder Woman you are!
