OOLY Printable Needed:

• Free OOLY Printable Coloring Gift Tag - featuring five cute puns 

Other Items Needed:

• Scissors (adult supervision required)
• Ribbon or string
• Clear gift pouch (optional)

Directions:

Step 1: Choose your OOLY product! Start by selecting from one of these fun and creative OOLY products:

• Avocado Love Eraser and Sharpener
• Very Berry Strawberry Scented Gel Pens
• Noted! 2-in-1 Micro Fine Tip Pen and Highlighters
• Vivid Pop! Water Based Paint Markers - Pastel
• Yummy Yummy Scented Glitter Gel Pens

You can gift the OOLY product on its own, or place it in a gift bag. In this case, we used a clear gift pouch to mimic notebook paper.

Step 2: Print and cut out the matching Free OOLY Printable Coloring Gift Tag which features fun, punny messages based on your chosen product. For example, "You are the highlight of our year!" pairs perfect with OOLY Noted! 2-in-1 Micro Pen and Highlighters.

Then have your kids color in the tags using OOLY markers, colored pencils, or crayons. This step adds a personal and creative touch to the gifts, making them extra special for the teachers.
Step 3: Once the tags are colored, it's time to assemble the gift packs. Attach the colored tags to the pouches or the product using a ribbon or string. This final touch ties the entire gift together and adds a splash of color.

Step 4: The last step is the most rewarding—presenting the completed gifts! Whether your children are giving them to their teachers on the first day of school or on teacher appreciation day, these thoughtful, handmade gifts are sure to be a hit. Don't forget to capture the smiles and excitement as the gifts are received!
