Teacher appreciation gifts are a great way to thank an educator. With tough economic times it can difficult to buy gifts for everyone, let alone add extra people to your list. Get the kids involved to make these bubble magnets for their teachers.

Things You'll Need

• magnets
• craft bubbles
• super glue
• stickers

Instructions

1. Find some craft marbles. These are even available at the dollar store. Place the marble flat side up.

2. Gather some images that you would like to use. These can be words, patterns, scrapbook papers, monograms, cartoons, or pictures. Have the kids try to come up with their teacher's interests or favorite colors. They can even write words that describe their teacher.

3. Cut the pictures to the size of the marble, then glue the picture to the back. Get the perfect size by drawing around the marble. Have an adult use superglue to affix a high power magnet to the back & ta daa. That's all it takes to have easy, practically free teacher appreciation gifts.
