3rd August
The year has gone by too quickly, before I know it it's already August. And before anyone knows, September will roll in.
This year, I didn't realize Teacher's Day is in a month's time. I haven't thought about what to gift the teachers. (usually start thinking and then sourcing for ideas, source for craft materials etc at least 2 months in advance) And for who? Are primary teachers included? There's no way lil' one can go back to KCP with covid and all the safety measurements enforced.
Asked her and her reply was she will prepare them herself this year. She wants to give food items. Haha! Did she think she was giving teacher's kiddy goodie packs? But perhaps it's not a bad idea after all. Teachers (I believe) are overwhelmed with gifts that they might not want, so snacks/food is a win-win solution. They can give it to their kids if they do not want to eat, everyone's happy.
In the end, I thought perhaps can outsource the gifts to this cute personalised handphone stand. And she selected only 3 school teachers she's gifting and not forgetting all her tutors.
First time ever, I'm so free with prepping for Teacher's Day. I only helped her with printing the cards, laminated and packed for her.
She only gave tutors the handphone stand.

2) Kraft bags from packeverything since I was at the vicinity. I remember seeing cute packaging from their shop years ago. So tempted to buy rubbish home then, but this time I was able to hold myself back knowing that I've long past the 'packing favors' stage. I wouldn't have any use for them. And even if I want to get any packaging, I had better finish what I have at home - the varied cellophane bags sizes.
