I purchased an apple stencil, placed the same number of apples on the apron as children in the class, then wrote each child's name inside the apple. Finished with exact number of stars and hearts. Wrote "BEST TEACHER" at the top with date. LOVED IT!

You can have the children sign and decorate smocks for their teachers. We parents do this for the teachers at the beginning of the school year. It gives the kids a feeling of pride and belonging when they see their teacher wearing it.
