First Day of First Grade- Backpacks and Snack Boxes Oh My!

The Frog Princess is

off to school

for her first day

of First Grade today.

I did a little

bit of crafting

yesterday to prep for the big day.

In first grade, they eat a snack and lunch

so she needed an extra box or bag for snack.

Well, here was my brain storm

I came up with in the shower yesterday:

Here is the front of the snack box

I painted for the Frog Princess.

Froggy (her lovey),

Goldie Snail,

and Tiny the Snail are all on here...

Side view.

There is a fairy, lady bug,

and daddy mermaid.

The other side...

with E-snail, Froggy,

and a pink sprinkle cupcake!

Here's her backpack with

felt flowers and a snail

added by her crafty mama

(who just can't leave anything alone!)

Here's her froggy I added to her strap.

This is the snail shrinky dink

(portrait of Tiny the Snail)

made by the Frog Princess

(she can't leave anything alone either!)

Special snail necklace.
