Happy March, Leprechaun!

My class went crazy over St. Patrick's Day!

Crazy as in actually crazy... I'm lucky they actually took a spelling test.

Last night, I made shamrock rice krispie treats! I followed the recipe at Simply Designing.

Should've used more green food coloring....... oh well. They were still cute! I got my shamrock cookie cutter at Party City, if you're interested!

Then my brother helped me make little bags that I filled with chocolate coins!

This morning, my BTF messed up my room and hid the bags around the room like an Easter egg hunt while we were at recess! When we got back, the kids LOST IT. They went crazy running around the room and found the bags really fast, at which point they devoured the chocolate in a matter of seconds. But they did clean the entire mess up in under 3 minutes, which was truly breathtaking.

Later, we graphed Lucky Charms! I got the activity sheets at Kindergarten Korner. They were awesome!

I don't know if you can tell, but this girl had an EXCESSIVE amount of shooting stars.  Like over 30. We all had ridiculous amounts of stars and only like 1 or 2 of the other ones. Did anyone else graph Lucky Charms? I'm wondering if my box was crazy or if they are all like that, haha!

I also bought shamrock door hangy things at Party City. These were amazing for the 20 minutes that they stayed like this. Soon after, two fell down and two other ones got tangled. At least I have a whole year to untangle them!!!!

After the kids went home, I found this little note in the coatroom:

If you can't read it, it says...

Dear Leprechaun,

Hi. Thanks for coming.

Happy March.

Love, Audrey

Aw. I love my crazy kids.

Last-Minute Seuss Snacks

Yes, it is 11:45 PM and I am whipping up snacks in the kitchen!!

Throughout the week, we've been reading Dr. Seuss books. We haven't done a whole lot besides just reading them... but our days are so short and packed that I can't find time to do anything else!!! :(

So far, we've read... Cat in the Hat, Green Eggs and Ham, The Foot Book, Horton Hatches the Egg, And To Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street, There's a Wocket in My Pocket, and we are halfway through Bartholomew and the Oobleck. That one is a killer... soooooo maaaaaany wooooooooooords.

To celebrate our buddy Dr. Seuss's birthday tomorrow, I'm making little candy green eggs and hams! My class is super dedicated to his birthday and they asked for me to put a cupcake on his birthday in our pocket chart calendar. We already have like 6 birthday cupcakes up this month!

Please pretend my pictures are better.... my camera decided that it doesn't feel like turning on so I had to use my phone. :(

I used little pretzel sticks and little candy melts that I bought at Michaels with a 40% coupon!!!

Here's the finished product! I laid an M&M in the middle for the yolk! So so so cute and so so so easy.

If you want to do it, here are the legit directions with breathtaking pictures. :)

And, here is a tip for you! Instead of buying the normal bag of M&Ms, see if you can find this bad boy:

All green!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's all. Time for bed! Happy Friday and happy March!!!! My birthday month. :)
