A few years ago I shared a picture of the lollipops and holders that I created for my students to send them off for the summer, telling them,
"Have a sweet summer! Love, Mrs. McKown"
"Have a sweet summer! Love, Mrs. McKown"
Just recently, "The Mailbox" shared it on their Facebook page. Ever since I have been receiving emails, requesting a copy of the flowers. I hadn't shared the file before because I had listed my name right on the flower, but I just recreated the file to say,
"Have a sweet summer! Love, Your Teacher"
You can choose to print them out as is. Or since I left the file as editable, you can change the text so that it includes your name or your own clever saying!
Once printed, simply cut the flowers out, stick whatever brand of lollipop you choose in the center of the flower, and hand them out to your little sweeties!
In the picture of the final product, you can see that I used the "DUM DUM" brand of lollipops. By reading comments posted through social media, I learned that a few people found this brand to be somewhat offensive. To be quite honest, I never even thought of them that way before I read the comments and they are just great little lollipops to me! I have used this brand of lollipops a lot, both at home and at school, and the kiddos really enjoy them and do not think twice about the name of them.
