Thanks these are great ideas and I will use especially the one with the different candies. But, I am looking for a poem to put on the invitation itself.

Any ideas? Thanks

search the msg board,,,this came thru in 2003:

FOR A SWEET GROUP OF TEACHERS
Thank you, teachers! You are all <SweetTarts> for everything you teach our children. You deserve <100 Grand>every <Payday>. We know sometimes our kids act like <Airheads> and <Nerds> or like they're from somewhere beyond the <Milky Way> (us parents, too!). You bring them such <Almond Joy> when you teach about the <Whatchamacallit> and ignore their <Whoppers>. It must be hard to contain your <Snickers> when those little <Sugar Babies> tell you <Mounds> of <Nutrageous> stories. Sometimes it must seem that all you do is <Skor> papers. Most days you probably just want to make like <Baby Ruth> and run home! Thanks, teachers, for <Raisin> our children to a higher level. You are the <Riesen> they're <Smarties> instead of <Dum Dums>. You are <LifeSavers> — you're worth a <Mint> to us all, and we <Treasure> all you do. We couldn't <Chewz> a better group of teachers than you!! Have an <Extra> <Carefree> weekend.
With <Hugs> and <Kisses>, The Parents of (School Name)"

We know teaching isn't always a "picnic", so we thought we would have one for you! Just to say THANKS for all that you do!

It was too cute to pass up!

I am looking for a appreciation luncheon poem. Does anyone know of one?
I have found appreciation poems but I wanted it to also be an invite.
Thanks
