I knew I wanted to do a "gender reveal party" for my first graders on Monday after my family's gender reveal Sunday. (Click here to read about that party!) And then I stumbled across a creative blogger who already had done one for her class! She had made and posted printables for free-score! ( Thank you!) If you are a teacher and haven't checked out her blog, make sure and do so!
Sunday night I made two little cakes for my first graders.
I dyed Baby A's cake blue and baby B's cake pink.
We started the morning by taking "team pictures".
We then voted for baby A and made our own graphs.
We then voted for baby B and made our own graphs.
Then it was the big moment.
We cut the cakes and there was a lot of cheering going on!
The kids were pretty spot on- just reversed the babies!
After we enjoyed the cake and celebrations,
the kids made a list of names I should consider for the babies.
Last, they wrote me mommy advice.
It was a special morning and I am glad I could share the excitement with my class!

I am so going to miss this group of kids! They are just so sweet! Glad you had such a fun learning experience for them!
How fun! I'm bummed I won't find out until after school is out :( good luck these last few days...packing up has been miserable!
Such great ideas! I know your class was so excited!
That is so sweet for you to include your first graders! I wish I would have thought about that! And I forgot to tell you that my kiddos were the same...A= boy and B=girl!!!
I love this!
Hi! I just found your blog through the comment on my blog, welcome to the world of boy girl twins!! I'm excited to watch your journey! Having twins is work but a blast!
I love this idea. What a great way to involve your students.

Aw so cute that you were able to share your news with your class like this! I bet they were so excited!
you seem like an AMAZING teacher! seriously impressed over here
What a fun, creative way to do a reveal! And the kids were learning at the same time. I am definitely not that creative!
