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.   Click Here For More Helpful Back To School Resources: What To Ask At Parent Teacher Conference  Real Advice For Middle School Boys Tips and Ideas For Starting Middle School Healthy Classroom Snack Ideas How To Write A Letter Describing Your Child To A Teacher Lunch Box Jokes for Kids
