Put 4 of the lights and a box of leaves in a pretty fall gift sack- the teachers LOVED this! Total cost- 8.00. I always appreciate getting something that is consumable- not just food, but soaps, candles, room spray, stationery, even beautiful paper napkins- doesn't add to the clutter! Oh, I think we signed a little gift tag "A fall present from Disneyland".
