    They will love them. I had an older teen ask me to make her one. She bought and drank (or emptied) all the Koolaid and rinsed them out. She loved it.

    I don't have any small kids who would drink the koolaid jammers, but I went to a nearby school, and I asked them to save me the bags for a week or two. And they did. I had hundreds of bags. They save them and get money from the recycle, so I gladly gave them the 5 cents per bag... I did that a couple of times and I made quite a few a few years back. I made a larger one (with 8 jammers on each side) for the school to use in a raffle... they filled it with books etc.. They loved it.

    sweet idea ;)

    Now that's a great idea--have a school fundraiser coming up. Thanks

    She's going to love them and I bet you won't be able to get them away from the kids. They are absolutely darling - what a great idea.
