We always run low with supplies in the classroom this time of year. I had fun using my gift cards at Target yesterday. I purchased another Lego set and a game for indoor recess and we have some new Play-dough accessories they can use. I feel bad for the kids they are inside and are not able to go outside due to cold weather temps. So I am sure they will be thrilled with the goodies I purchased for indoor recess.
