Father's Day Bottles of Love

Father's Day: Bottles of Love                                    Father's Day

Materials: 

  • Plenty of Reese's Pieces
  • A container that has a lid on it (i.e., bottle)
  • Tags
  • Paper (copy paper or scrapbook paper, your choice)
  • Tape and/or glue
  • Crayons/markers/colored pencils

What I Did:

I went to Hobby Lobby and bought small sand bottles (99 cents a piece!) and a few pieces of scrapbook paper for the paper that goes around the bottle and cheap tags you can write on to put around the opening of the top of the bottle. I got 4 bags of Reese's Pieces at Walmart.
I had the students write "Happy Father's Day!" on cut out pieces of scrapbook paper and tape that around the bottle, then fill the bottle up with Reese's Pieces. Then I had them write on the tags "I love you to pieces" and tie that around the opening, screwing the lid on afterwards.
After that, I had them write personalized cards to go with their gifts to their fathers. 
And then we all enjoyed some leftover Reese's Pieces! :)
