Inexpensive Christmas Gift

DCD,

Oh my. You made my day with the reindeer poop poem.

I would love to give the poem and malt balls to our teachers. Because they are all stinkers.
We have a huge lack of cooperation with our staff.

Oh well, don't want to be a downer so.

Happy Holidays to all..........

how about this one?

It's Reindeer Poop!  Place a handful of malted milk balls in a zipper food storage bag.   Seal and label with the following poem.

I woke up with such a scare when I heard Santa call... 
"Now dash away, dash away, dash away all!" 
I ran to the lawn, and in the snowy white drifts, 
those nasty reindeer had left "little gifts". 

I got an old shovel and started to scoop 
Neat little piles of "reindeer poop." 
but to throw them away seemed such a waste, 
So I saved them, thinking you might like a taste! 

As I finished my task, which took quite a while, 
Old Santa passed by and he sheepishly smiled. 
And I heard him exclaim as he rose to the sky~~~ 
"Well, they're not potty trained, but at least they can fly!"

Happy Holidays to all of you PTA and PTO leaders.

Those are hilarious!!!

Here is my question. I remember seeing on here a poem that you gave with candy. I can't seem to find it. We are giving the teacher a candy dish with candy in it for Christmas. We bought Kisses, Milky Way, Reese's Cups, Tootsie Rolls, 3 Musketeers. Does anyone have any cute sayings to include with this?

Here are some 'takes' on the mug.

Put 10 - 12 miniature marshmallows in a small baggie (those half size ones). Close it and attach the following poem:

I heard that you've been naughty,
So listen, here's the scoop.....
I'm running short on coal this year,
So you get Snowman Poop!!!!
Love,
Santa

Here is another:

In a separate half size baggie, put in a scoop of oatmeal and a tablespoon of red, gold, green and silver mixed glitter. Attach the following note:

Magic Reindeer Food
Sprinke on the lawn at night
Moon will make it sparkle bright
Santa's Reindeer fly and roam
This will guide them to your home

We put both baggies in a large mug, along with a packet of hot chocolate, a candy cane and other misc. candies that we find on sale.

Thanks so much for the idea! We may have to use that. We don't have a meeting in December, but maybe a gift to the staff from PTO.
Have a nice day!~
