Love the ISpy ornaments! What an adorable idea!
Dana r Hettich
I love the Christmas ornament. So simple even I can do it. One question, how many hidden items did you put in each ornament?
Not So Wimpy Teacher
Hi Dana,
You may have to experiment with the number of objects you put in each ornament depending on what you use. You don’t want to put too many inside so they can’t hide and you don’t want to put too few in where they can’t be found. I hope you students enjoy the hunt!

Love ALL your ides. I do books, pencil, a holiday book mark from Walmart. I might see about the cards though. Love!

I love the addition war idea with a deck of cards!!! Added bonus is the kids will be practicing their math facts. Thanks for all you do!

I love the math war cards — what a great idea! Have you considered making one that’s more winter theme? I found super cute snowflake playing cards on Oriental Trading and would totally love to have the math war cards match. 🙂
Not So Wimpy Teacher
Hi Heather,
I bet those snowflake playing cards are cute! I’m sorry, I do not have plans to create the math war directions using a different theme. Thank you for the suggestion for possible future revisions.
