Celebration time... the last day of school is finally here!
My girls are super excited for summertime, and we will be getting their report cards next Wednesday, so we are already planning to reward those good grades! I love being able to reward my kiddos for their hard work! Here are some fun ways to do so without breaking the bank!
You should definitely plan ahead and contact your local store to make sure they participate in these offers, as I know some of these are regional, and some are at participating establishments only. The very last thing you want is a disappointed child with a good report card, right!?!? A few of these programs are for schools and teachers; they will need to sign up to get the program materials to pass out to their students.
