I like to surprise my girls with fun things often. Yesterday in the middle of my work day I had some time to kill, so I went hunting for homeschooling supplies. The "Dollar Spot" at Target has been a gold mine for me. I also like to dig around in post-holiday sales. A lot of the stuff they end up marking down is still plenty good even though the holiday is over.
Each baggie cost me less than $10 to put together! Zipper plastic baggies with bows, magnets, and Hello Kitty dolls were all part of the Easter clearance. The tiny composition notebooks were 2 for $0.50. Magnifying glasses, magnetic dry erase boards, and more magnets were all marked down 50% at the Dollar Spot.
The kids were delighted. My goal was to give them a fun activity kit for car rides. I have been relying on the tablet a lot, but I am getting really tired of listening to Frozen. Since receiving their surprises, they haven't asked for their movie at all.
