I am a speech therapist in the schools and have about 70 kids on my caseload. It’s really hard to find something to give them for holidays that doesn’t cost me an arm and a leg!! I printed these 4 to a page, added a small can of Play-doh, and put them in a cellophane bag. It looks adorable!! Thank you so much for sharing!!
