A few readers, including Jennifer Auten, a teacher and room parent from Sunnyvale, California, had high praise for simple window cling paint. Instead of dipping into the budget for store-bought classroom decorations, Jennifer likes to kick off a party with a craft project and soon-to-be room decoration in one: the students use the inexpensive paint (available at craft supply stores) to make their own themed designs on overhead transparency sheets. Once dry, the clings stick to the windows -- and stay conveniently out of the way. When another occasion rolls around, they're easily peeled off and sent home with their creators.
