Bulletin Board Ideas?

I have a bulletin board in my office and one out in the hallway. I also have a wall outside my office that I use for monthly decorations/holiday ideas. The one in the hallway has a lid type covering over it, so it's a chore to change it. It only gets changed about three times a year. The bulletin board in my office was used for our school's "Biggest Loser" competition during the second part of the last school year. I'm at a loss as to what to do with it now....I have tons of "healthy" posters and stuff, but I use those in the hallway and the other bulletin board. I would like to do something along the lines of cute quotes or cartoons on the one in my office, to make the kids smile while they are in here. Any ideas?? It's covered in green paper with a yellow trimmer border that has primary colored stars on it.

What about a consistent "theme" but with new info monthly? I try to use the bulletin board in our middle school for "Healthy Habits" and the header stays up but the content changes. Sometimes I do "eat this, not that" and have nutrition labels and package fronts, once I had a "breakfast is brain fuel, did you have yours today" thing, sometimes I cut out magazine pictures like do's and don'ts (like proper shoes for gym, and flip flops and heels in the don't categories), sometimes pictures of serving sizes. I bet some teachers would be willing to pose with their favorite healthy snack and you could post those pictures. Our librarian did pictures of teachers with their favorite book and the kids really liked to look and see what the teachers chose.

have fun!
