Gifts for the Girls' school mates

As school is winding down for Christmas break, I am wondering exactly what my girls could take to their classmates as a gift.  I don't want to spend a ton of money but I want to atleast send something. Then last night it hit me.  I had a great idea. The girls were sitting at the dining room table coloring. Homemade coloring books!!! All it would cost me is paper and ink.  I got on Google and began searching for Christmas coloring pages. Here is one I found at Free Coloring Pages. 



 I printed 10 pages front and back, am going to cover them with construction paper, and let the girls write "from_____" on them.  Its personal. Its cheap. And what kid does not like to color at some point.  I get off work early Friday and I think it would be neat to wear red with a Santa hat and deliver the coloring books to their classrooms.  I am excited now. I can't wait. I think I'm going to pretend that I forgot the coloring books that morning so I can surprise them :).  We'll see how it goes.
