I thought of one more idea...since he didn't like the cheesy packaging for seeds, he could make his own packaging...and stuff the seeds in.

Sounds good.

Ah, back to writing reports. My fiance is coming back in town tonight; I'll share this thread with her for laughs and ideas.

I have about 10 hours to clean house from both our year end messes as a welcome back treat, finish reports, and come up with new favor ideas. Now, I don't need help with the cleaning, I wish I could get help with the reports, but...

Any last ideas would be more than welcome!

I still don't know what the reports are for??

They are year end student reports, like as in report cards. My school doesn't give grades, so we write narrative reports on the students' learning in all subjecst as well as an overall social and learning portait. A big chunk of time. Technically they were due on Friday, but I'm not the only teacher turning them in on Monday.

Even bad ones?

for example:

screaming monkeys
paper cranes (origami)
paper fans
squirt guns
dice
any mini toys (e.g., yo-yo's, if you & the missus find that humorous)
Massachusetts state quarters
Red Sox or Patriots crap (if you're sports fans)
fortune cookies

Those are bad?? :smile:
we were thinking wind-up toys originally. All ideas are source for creativity. I'll take them all. Some, foam toilet seats and hookers, are good for a laugh, and I'll take those, too.

My favorite phrase to use for those "marginal student" types was "Suzi/Fred achieved modicum of success in blah...blah...blah." Half of them didn't know what "modicum" meant so they saw the word "success" and were happy with themselves...

The Cure had these awesome wind-up tin toys that they used on their album covers for the "Wild Mood Swings" singles...they were cool.

I haven't read the whole thread, so I don't know your backgrounds, but for some reason a Ghostbusters quote comes to mind: "Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together - mass hysteria."

Wind-up cats and dogs.

the whole point is that they are not my in-laws yet! I gotta get something to put on the tables. They will judge me forever after on the choice of favors. The Brits will judge me on the choice of favours. I am doomed. Doomed, I tell ya.
