Teachers have a special place in a parent’s heart. They’re allies in a common pursuit to bring out the best in a special student – your kid!

Let them know how much they count with these thoughtful gifts:

“Thanks for helping me grow!” Pot a little plant with a short but sweet handwritten note.

“Thanks for being so sweet!” Fill a glass canning jar with colorful candies (Tip: Consider M&Ms in seasonal red and green, or Hershey’s Kisses and Hugs chocolates). Top off the gift with a bow and a card.

“Thanks for sharing your gift!” Gift cards from local coffee houses, craft or bookstores are always a hit with teachers. Or better yet, have the class pitch in on purchasing a larger gift card for spa services. (That’s always Kidsguide’s gift of choice!)
