Every year, I used to struggle with what to get my classroom kids for Christmas! Having 24+ students means that things can add up quickly! I used to get them all the same book! And while that is nice, I saw this idea on Pinterest a few years ago and really loved it! For around $1.50 per student, I can give them a cute gift that they really enjoy! Plus, many students don't have gloves (or socks if you choose) to keep them warm! Here's what you need: 1 Hershey bar per student 1 pair of socks or gloves per student Ribbon Snowman Face Template From label What to do?
I used to cover each Hershey bar with white paper every year and DRAW on the faces! This year, I got smart! I created this Snowman Face Template to make the process go faster! I purchased gloves in a three pack from Wal-Mart for $1.47! Can't beat that! After I cover each Hershey bar with the Snowman Face Template, I put the gloves on top, tie the fingers with ribbon, and attach a label to the back that says "Merry Christmas from Mrs. Post"! Easy peasy! I used to use socks for the hats, but using gloves is a less expensive option! To my teacher tribe, I hope this makes gift giving a little easier for you!! Merry Christmas to you all!

What a precious idea. Perfect for school or can adapt to use for church children also!

Hello! Love these and have all the stuff to assemble! Putting the gloves on (both to be specific) is problematic for me! ;) What am I doing wrong? Any tips? Thanks!

I just fold them together at the base. Then put the candy bar through one glove. Once I tie them together, it doesn’t matter if they come apart!

What size paper should the wrapper be printed on? And is it just regular computer paper? Thanks so much! These are so cute!
