BIRTHDAY BOTTLES

Every year I want to do something special for my students on their birthday. A few years ago I saw an idea and revised it a little. I started saving water and sports bottles, at Easter time I bought LOTS of grass, and during the early summer I started making a weekly trip to the Dollar Store. I probably spent total $15.00 to make about 30 bottles!

In each birthday bottle I put in a glitter pencil, a highlighter, a little party toy of some sort, a couple of erasers, a Mardi Gras beaded necklace, a free homework pass (rolled up with a ribbon) and the Easter grass. I used packaging tape to attach the outside label on the bottle. I store them in a box at school so they are there for the kids birthday's!  I enjoy making them during the summer and it is one less thing I have to worry about during the year! (And the best thing is....the kids really like them!)

I have attached the bottle labels and the free homework pass below. Have fun making them!
