What is my biggest announcement to date? Well…I WROTE A BOOK! Technically speaking, WE wrote a book. Who’s WE, you ask? My songwriting partner and pal, Nathan Meckel. There’s a little bit of a back story that follows the journey from idea – to song – to idea – to book release in the fall […]
What makes a regular aunt become a SUPER AUNT? “I wuuuv these shoes!” They were light-up, glittery, and had a different Disney princess covering every surface available. I let her try them on. She didn’t want to take them off. So, we went through the Target check-out line and had them scan her feet, I […]
Whats a desk pet shop? You may be saying to yourself, “Not only am I wondering what’s a desk pet SHOP – but just WHAT is a DESK PET?” Aha. Good question. If you aren’t sure what a desk pet is…check out this post first! Now, let’s say that you DO know what a desk […]
I think I might invest in a GoPro camera I can constantly wear every day in kindergarten. Yes, of course, it would be stylish. 😉 But besides that, it’s the only way I could catch all of the brilliantly creative things my kids say about their desk pets. However, until that purchase is made, these […]
Can Easter eggs free printables really turn kindergarten chaos into some classroom calm? You betcha. Do your kids have spring fever? Yep. Mine too.

My name is Kaci. Kaci SHANNON Bolls. (Actually, Kaci SHANNON Bolls Scott if you’re really getting technical.) During the month of March, however, you may call me: Kaci O’ Shannon. In my warped mind, I become one of the fringe background characters in every one of these 13 Lucky St. Patrick’s Day read-alouds I’ve picked […]
I have always had a leprechaun visit to my kindergarten classroom. My kids consider it the luck o’ the Irish! A few years ago, I had a savage and deadly idea to keep the manky hallions and sleevens away from our classroom and instead attract a grand gas of a lad. We got jammy! Stall […]
Ahhh…springtime for kindergarten. Such a WONDERFUL time of the year! This is the point in the year where all of the hard work starts to show up and show out – much like all the blooms I’m seeing outside. Now, the plants are getting ahead of themselves with the wacky weather we’ve had. But the […]
Awww, the month of LOVE. Valentine’s Day is my mother’s favorite holiday, so it naturally holds a special place in my heart too! I have a new single out called Giving It Away (if you haven’t heard it yet – WHY are you waiting??), and I thought it would be fitting to create some Valentine’s […]
