So, I was contacted a week or so ago to start thinking about organizing the classroom Valentine's Day party. I didn't even have the confetti vacuumed up yet from New Year's, and it was time to think about Valentine's Day?! Wowsers! But of cousrse, I instantly started scanning the Internet for ideas. BUT, it also forced me to think about how my girls would show their teachers some love this Valentine's Day. I don't want to give chocolate or any kind of candy, because honestly, I think it all ends up in the teacher's lounge... but what about hot chocolate?! I love my cup of hot chocolate! This would be something the teachers would keep for themselves. So, using a 12 oz. Mint Hot Cocoa can I found at Target (they actually have a bunch of yummy flavors)....

I made a cute printable to cover the can.

Cute, right? If you want to use this idea, you can
download the printable here. I also included a circle for the top of the can where your child can sign his/her name. The printable just makes it around the can--there is a little bit of a gap–but I don't think any teacher will hate you for that!
I hope you enjoy!
