Be-Bop-Ti-Bop-Ti-Bop...BIRTHDAYS!!!!

For starters...all I can say is WOW! I realized that on yesterday's post I put Happy Monday?!? OH.MY.WORD!  I should try to go into great detail to explain myself (MAJOR grad school test, 200 page book to read, book critique to write, classroom to decorate, planning for a little trip this weekend, house cleaning, etc. etc. etc.) BUT I won't! :)  I hope that I didn't terribly confuse any of you out in blog world and make you check yourself a thousand times to see if it was indeed Thursday instead of Monday! Seriously!?! Ay...yi...yi!!!

Ok...my face is no longer red with embarrassment sooooo....on to bigger and better things! BIRTHDAYS!!!!  Oh how I LOVE to celebrate birthdays. I tell my husband that it is my birthday month rather than just one day...hey a girls got to try right?!? As I was racking my brain over the past few weeks about how I was going to tie birthdays into my Rock-n-Roll theme, I got an email from one of my sweet little bloggy friends and she had an AMAZING idea! We decided that I would create since she came up with the idea! So, here you have it...BEBOPPIN' BIRTHDAYS! How cute is that?!? {Thank you Hillary!!! A BIG shout out goes to you and your awesome idea!!!} 

For display, you can write your students name and birthday under the correct month and display under the above sign.
OR...if you want to get really crafty, you an display the students pictures in each ipod. Boy do I just L.O.V.E. Pinterest. Here is an idea that has been popping up all over that site! This is from Erica Bohrer's Classroom. If you haven't seen her blog, you are missing out! She is fabulous!

I have also included a few other little cutsies in this birthday kit:

Birthday Balloons for Pixie Sticks
These are the Rock-n-Roll version, but there are generic themed balloons as well! 
There are several versions of these pixie sticks swirling around the internet but the above picture comes from What The Teacher Wants (another crazy amazing blog!)

Birthday Buttons
Again, the kits contains buttons for a Rock-n-Roll theme or a generic theme that could fit into any classroom! 

How can I get it?
Last night, I found a lovely little tutorial describing how to create a blog button...so of course I just HAD TO!!!! I would love for you to snatch it up. It is located underneath the "followers" section of my blog and looks a little something like this:
To show my overwhelming gratitude for you adding the shenanigans to your blog, I will email you a copy of Beboppin' Birthdays!!!! When you comment, please be sure to leave your email address so I can send this your way!

Now...let me try this one more time because yesterday = epic fail! HAPPY FRIDAY!!!!!! Right?!? ; )
