Back to School {Survival Kits}

{Made By Me Monday}
...and if you are one of my young women, stop reading! :)
_____________________________
We wanted to do something fun this year for the first day of school for our Young Women to let them know that we love them. We decided it would be cute to do a SURVIVAL KIT for each of them to wish them well on their first day back to school. I found this idea here and loved it! The original idea suggests putting everything in a school pencil case. I thought because of budget, that it would be better to put everything in a SUPER CUTE polka dot bag! Ten polka dot bags for $1.99 at Hobby Lobby...can't beat that! :)

Each kit includes:

M&M's 

 Be a Member Missionary!

sealed on top with a tag that reminds them to remember who they are and that we LOVE THEM!! I love my Young Women and am so blessed to be surrounded by such great girls! Of course, you can personalize your bags to fit the person that you are giving it to. For instance... little kids, "CHEWS" the right everyday!

Super simple to make and very inexpensive. I bought everything for a grand total of  $35.00. For 30 girls, that makes each kit just over $1.00

WHOOP!

Happy Monday!
