Well this week sees the end of the school year here in the UK. Now faced with not only gifts for teachers we have teaching assistants – making end of year an expensive business. See off I went to Pinterest in order to find some ideas that would make it cheaper and more personal. You can visit my Teacher Gifts Board Here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"helpingmegrow\"<\/a>The original idea is here<\/a><\/p>\n

I cheated and bought some plants – but you could, ideally, grow your own.<\/p>\n

I then cut out 2 strips of yellow paper more than long enough to go around the pots.<\/p>\n

\"grwoingmaterials\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Then with a black felt tip pen I got my son to mark the paper like a tape measure<\/p>\n

\"tapemeasure\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Then we secured the tape measure to the pot with sticky tape<\/p>\n

\"measurearoundpot\"<\/a><\/p>\n

He then cut out a left shape out of some tissue paper and wrote the message – thanks for helping me grow on it, which we secured onto the card that tells you what the plant is.<\/p>\n

And there you have it. So quick and simple but, I think, a bit more personal and special that just another plant.<\/p>\n
