Free Printable for the Back-to-School Fairy Tradition

 

Twas the night before the first day of school and all through the house everyone is sleeping….. or maybe not!  Maybe your child is is a little anxious or dreading the return of school.  Here comes the Back -to-School Fairy!

To ease the transition, here’s a little poem for you.  Simple parent directions:  Read the poem to your child and take a little bit of glitter and sprinkle it under their pillow.  Teacher directions to make them in bulk are below the poem).

I made the above Back-to-School Fairy fancy containers for my nieces.  I put the poem and a glitter in a small sealed bag and wrapped the scrapbook paper around it.

Are you a preschool or elementary teacher?  The boys just finished making 50 of them for some of our first grade teacher / friends.  

Supplies for the Back-to-School Fairy for Teachers

Supplies List:

  • Any Type of Sequin: round sequins, butterflies, or pink
  • Bags (3×4″) are the perfect size.

* I was able to purchase all of the supplies at Walmart
Teachers:  A pinch of sequins will do.  I don’t want parents writing me upset about the mess!  The kind featured above is for ages 6+ and is the large chunky kind, one Walmart size bag was enough for 60+ kids if you just give them a little.  I think each little bag had about 10 pieces.  Trust me, no mom wants too much in their home.
