Sounds interesting on the ham theme. There is a candy shop in the area that takes chocolate pigs and dresses them up with things. Hogs & Kisses (pig and hersey's kisses) Pigcasso (pig and paint brush) Swine lake (pig in a tutu) Swine and Roses (self explanitory) Pigs in a blanket (ditto) Maybe that will provide some inspiration.

Other than baskets, things that have gone really well are personalized student stuff. A flower pot decorated with the thumb prints of a class and made to look like bugs. A platter with prints on it. Stationery sets. A one of a kind student created book.

We are getting ready for our annual fall carnival. Our theme is Ham It Up At The Carnival. We would like some new game ideas that go with this theme if anyone has any to give. We also do theme baskets for each grade level. We have used movies, fishing, fall, winter,etc. If anyone has new ideas on baskets it would be greatly appreciated. Lastly, if anyone has decorating ideas for the Ham theme we need those also. Thank You!
