Today is BBβs last day of preschool before starting school on Monday. The presents for staff have been flowing in all week β according to BB wine is the best present. When I asked her how she knew this, she said: βbecause Iβve heard them talking about it.β Fair enough. If I were a preschool teacher that would be my favourite present too.
I thought it only fair that everyone from the cleaners to the cooks to the actual key workers are thanked for their efforts, as theyβve all had a part in BBβs time there, so sadly our budget doesnβt stretch to wine (Iβve even heard of mums and dads shelling out on cases of champagne).
Apart from alcohol, what makesΒ a good nursery school leaving present?
I thought about it for a little while and came up with the idea of a DIY hamper with a βgirlsβ night inβ theme (all the staff are women. I think.) I got Misery Guts to βacquireβ a wicker basket from work, then went to Boots where I loaded up on face masks, chocolate and popcorn. I lined the basket with tissue paper and arranged it all nicely inside with a curly ribbon.
Hopefully itβs done the trick β Iβll find out when I go and collect her. I just hope Iβm not being cursed for the lack of wineβ¦
I think that sounds like a lovely idea, I hope they liked it x #myfavouritepost
They said they did…but probably would have liked wine too!x
