I never get them though, haha.</p> <p>I think I'll make them. LO *just* switched rooms, so I feel like I should do something for all 4 teachers and I can't afford much!</p> <p>I might do some chocolate bark to go along with it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gifts-in-a-jar#post-1269450 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 13:33:02 +0000 Adira 1269450@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bookish: That's what I've done in the past too!

Plus like @Bookish: said - it doesn't require any baking. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gifts-in-a-jar#post-1269448 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 13:32:41 +0000 Mrs. Pink 1269448@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do use them and most of my friends and neighbors that I have given them to used them as well... I guess it depends on the people?</p> <p>I like the suggestion of cocoa mix though- more likely to get used! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gifts-in-a-jar#post-1269435 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 13:29:37 +0000 Bookish 1269435@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're just doing homemade cocoa, so it doesn't involve any baking/cooking on the recipient's part, other than boiling some water! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gifts-in-a-jar#post-1269425 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 13:27:02 +0000 autumnlove 1269425@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually don't use these gifts. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gifts-in-a-jar#post-1269423 Mon, 09 Dec 2013 13:26:25 +0000 jedeve 1269423@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do people actually like these? I want to make some for LO's daycare teachers. But I know my mom would just let any sort of mix languish in the back of her cupboard forever. </p> <p>What do you think? </p>
