I loved the first day of school as a kid. Remember how your clothes were new and starchy and way too warm for the summer heat that clearly didn't get the memo that autumn had arrived? Remember seating charts that sat you right next to the cutest boy in school who - when he was in a good mood - asked you, yes, you to help him fill in the holes on his unfinished homework? Remember the little notes of encouragement from your parents tucked into your book bag that made riding the school bus bearable? Yeah. Me, too.
Parents! Don't miss the chance to make your little scholar's day! Tuck a love note into a lunch, a book, or inside a sneaker. Who knows... they might even forget to roll their eyes at you as you shout, "I love you, sweetheart!" in front of their friends.

Instructions:
I made my custom Back to School seals by printing the pdf document on full sheet label paper (available at any office supply retailer) and then cut to size. (I started with a scalloped circle paper punch that was just shy of 2-inches, but decided that I liked the look of a square better. It made the label look more like a miniature piece of binder paper. You can see both in the photo above.) Stick them on a teeny paper bag full of Smarties candies and enjoy!
