Every year I make my son’s class a Christmas gift for him to pass out to the entire class. This year I have two kids in school, so double the work. I needed an easy and quick gift idea, last year we made Snowball Playdoh and it was a huge hit with the kids. Now that he’s in 4th grade he had requested a more mature gift. So today I’m sharing the Polar Express Bell Favors & Printable Tags we made.
I thought it would be fun to have him gift each child a silver magical bell with a cute printable tag in the shape of a ticket from the popular movie Polar Express. This gift is actually the perfect gift this year for his class since they are putting on a classroom play of the Polar Express. So each student will now have their own bells.
Supplies:
– Medium or Large sized Silver Bells (these were found at the 99 cents only store)
– Ribbon or Bakers Twine
– Matte Photo Paper or White Card Stock
– Printer
– Scissors or a Paper Cutter
– Hole Punch
– Free Printable Polar Express Tags, found HERE
Start by downloading the free printable tickets HERE, then print. Then print on either a matte photo paper (for best results) or a white card stock.

Thanks Gigi! I actually just printed them again myself and my boys are passing them out again this year because they love them so much. Merry Christmas!

OMG! You are a ROCK STAR for creating this and posting and sharing for all to enjoy! Going to be the hero for my daughter’s TK Polar Express Day! The teacher just asked for me to bring in silver bells….but no, I don’t just settle for standard. I’m going to make these for the class so the teacher can pass these out and blow the 5 year old minds!! THANK YOU!!!!!

Oh my goodness these are fantastic! We are riding the Polar Express Train and going to attach the bell to this at the end of the ride!
Thank you so much!

Hi Carole,
There is actually a link in the post to download the printable tags. The bells were found at Dollar Tree several years ago, but I do believe they have them from time to time at the holidays. π

These would be a great gift with a small bag with a few chocolate bells as a teacher gift
