My daughter is SO excited to give Christmas gifts to her teachers at preschool this year! She has had a great school year so far, and just adores her teachers. So, when it came time to think of what to make (and yes, we always make the gifts for the kid's teachers) I wanted it to be something she could help with.
Last year, my oldest son and I did the "twelve cookies of Christmas". That gift seemed like a great idea but once I had to come up with the 12 different cookies, then make them, it was more stressful than fun. They did turn out great, though. I'll see if I can find all the recipes and post them one of these days. This year, I wanted to keep it simpler, but still as thoughtful and wonderful.
Then I found this idea on Pinterest. Simple, easy peppermint hot chocolate mix. It looks beautiful, makes enough to serve 12, and was easy enough for my 4 year old to pretty much do on her own. It would have only taken 5 minutes to do, if it wasn't for unwrapping all of the peppermints to crush. :)
I made a star-shaped tag with the instructions on the back, added some glitter, and attached it with a red ribbon. Simple, beautiful, and delicious! I'm adding an angel ornament that I made to go with it. Merry Christmas!
