  1. The Pez would be something new and fun for most of my kindergarteners AND the $100 cash; so many possibilities!! 😉

  2. I am a student teacher and graduate in May. All these supplies would be so helpful for me to start off my classroom! Love the President items and PEZ is the best! 🙂 Thanks!

  3. Would love any of these but especially the White House Kids book and the brainquest set as I have been out of the classroom for 6 years and now am back in and need more current books and materials!

  4. I love access to new resources. I’m going to check out the ABCmouse.com to share with our early elementary teachers. The Smile Train will be good to share with some of of older kids too. Thanks for bringing these to our attention!
