Teacher Gifts That Make the GradeWondering what to get your child’s teacher as an end-of-the-year thank-you gift? If you’re thinking about anything with apples or #1 teacher on it, walk quickly to the next aisle. Those teacher-themed gifts are way overdone. Instead find a gift that’s thoughtful, and one they’ll enjoy. Need some help? Here’s a quick lesson on gifts they’ll love.
Gift Cards
You can never go wrong with a gift card. Whether it’s for a favorite restaurant or for a retail store, it’s a gift teachers really appreciate and like getting the most. It’s also one that, depending on what it’s for (movie theater, dinner, etc.), spouses and children also get to enjoy.
Grant a Wish
If your child’s teacher has a classroom “wish list”, filling one of those wishes also makes a great gift. Many times teachers pay for supplies out of pocket and having someone else help out means a lot, even though it may seem like a boring gift to you.
Gift Basket
Find out what her hobbies are and create a gift basket. If you know she loves the beach, have a bag custom-monogrammed and fill it with a beach towel, sunscreen, flip flops, a good book and more. Or get a popcorn bowl and add a movie rental gift card, popcorn, soft drinks and candy for a movie night at home.
Spa Day or Sporting Tickets
Show your appreciation for all their hard work and dedication with a little indulgence. Treat her to a day at the spa or at least a manicure and pedicure. For the guys, tickets to a sporting event are always welcome. Or go in with some other parents and treat the teacher to a night at a bed and breakfast.
