It’s blueberry picking season in our part of the world! We had so much fun this weekend with friends at a local blueberry patch. There’s is just something magical about going with your family to pick food from the earth together. From birds, bunnies, butterflies and even baby bird just born we really felt one with nature.
We kept it simple and I’m sure you could go all fancy but it was my daughters creation and from the heart which is the best gift of all. She hand made her cards to each teacher with a message that says “You are BERRY special!” She also drew a picture of her teacher and her on the front.
Here’s a printable if you are bringing a special Berry Treat to your child’s Teacher this berry picking season. I think doing random gifts throughout the school year are a great way to show your appreciation to your child’s teacher with little things.
Are you looking for more ways to use your blueberries? Check out 30 Ways to Eat Blueberries. It’s our post from last year that includes recipes, activities, songs, books and how to store all your blueberries. Plus we have a sewing project to do with Peter in Blueberry Land. We’re sharing our strawberry ideas this week! Strawberries would make a sweet gift too!
Look what we found at the library this week too after she passed out our blueberries! Ordinary Mary’s Extradordinary Deed by Emily Person. I love when you can find books that relate to what you’re doing in real life.
