If you want to say “Thank You, Teacher!” in a totally surprising and unexpected way, then keep reading. You may be thinking to yourself, “Well, I don’t have any school-aged children – so this isn’t for me.” WRONG! You don’t have to have children at all! All you have to do is know someone who […]
Classroom management for kindergarten is kinda my jam…as in – I LOVE IT. I mean, the phrase “classroom management” doesn’t sound too thrilling, and quite honestly, it probably sounds like something you’d want to put at the bottom of a to-do list. By name alone, it would seem to fit nicely alongside “clean your closets,” […]
While a book for kindergarten may seem like it is only meant for 5-year-olds, it has the power to teach and remind all ages of important lessons that we can easily forget. Teaching kindergarten has provided countless moments to reflect on who I was as a 5-year-old and who I wanted to be. As I […]
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 […]
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 […]

However, until that purchase is made, these […]

And, to be fair…I think I may have it worse than my kindergarteners! During this last stretch of the year, I like to pump up the volume on some unexpected fun […]
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 […]
