Bow Ear Saver:
I created these ear savers as a project for a friend's daughter who I taught when she was in Kindergarten Boot Camp. What's Kindergarten Boot Camp? It was a three day introduction to school to ease students into starting school. They made friends, got to go on a Gingerbread Man hunt around the school so they could get to know where classrooms were, and got to play and have fun. We have since changed the name from Kindergarten Boot Camp to Kindergarten Experience, but she was one of my first students.
