Who doesn't have a Beanie Babies Stash in their closet? Put a use to them! I was lucky enough to have found a Birthday themed one in my stash and brought it to use in the classroom. This past year, I wanted to step it up and help make student's birthdays a little more special. For a student's birthday, our school has the student's name displayed in the video announcements; the class sings to them; they get a certificate, hat, sticker, and birthday straw from me; and (what students love the most) is the BIRTHDAY BEAR gets to sit with them all day! No one can touch the birthday bear, he just sits at the birthday kid's table spot and hangs out with them on their special day. Most of the student's don't mind not touching him (or they tattle very quickly if someone does), they love having him at the table with them. May seem silly to us adults, but try it! This birthday bear MAKES THEIR DAY! #BeanieBabies #MakeUseOfThem #TeacherHacks
