The cupcakes were vanilla with peppermint flavored icing and then crushed candy canes on top!
I have found that paper tablecloths, especially for class parties, works the best for quick clean up!
December has been a VERY busy month, but I LOVE the festivities of Christmas! As the room mom for my daughter's kindergarden class, I am responsible for planning the holiday parties. This year I decided to go with "Penquins & Peppermints" theme, so as to not favor any particular religious holiday. The teacher had asked each student to bring a small gift for the classroom, instead of bringing her a gift. The kids had a blast sitting in a circle with each other and opening up the gifts for the classroom. For the craft, we made snowmen ornaments with their handprints on them and a sweet poem.(check later this week for diy tutorial).Printables: Luv Bug Design http://www.etsy.com/shop/luvbugdesign
