During the holiday season, at the end of the semester and school year, it’s become a tradition for a child to part from their teacher with a gift. It can vary from cute handmade gifts to the elaborate. Sometimes they can cost a few dollars and other time’s Mom’s can spend a fair bit of money. Teacher’s gifts can also become a bit of competition for the moms in the schoolyard. Who spent the most money? Who created the most thoughtful gift?

Whatever the gift may be, I’m sure the teachers appreciate every thought and effort. However, sometimes you can draw a blank on what to get. So here are a few suggestions for you:

Stationery

What teacher doesn’t love stationery? Bright coloured pens, pretty notebooks and wildlife calendars are all wonderful gifts to receive. Stationery is useful in the teacher profession. No one can never have too much stationery. There are some wonderful items available from notebooks with inspiring quotes to pretty floral pens and paper. There will be something to suit any teacher.

Handmade cards and pictures

Sitting children down for an afternoon with paints, glue, stickers and pens will keep them occupied. But the time could be used wisely to create some masterpieces. Anything handmade shows thought and effort and are always well received. Perhaps take it one step further and hunt around Pinterest for some ideas. There are plenty of unique handmade gifts on there like hot chocolate jars and homemade beauty products.

Alcohol

It depends on the type of relationship someone has with their child’s class teacher as to whether this gift is appropriate. It also depends on how well they know them. A bottle of wine or their favourite drink could be a perfect choice. Just make sure it’s handed over by an adult and not left in children’s hands.

Food gifts

If someone knows their child’s class teacher well, they may know what their favourite food would be. Special chocolates or creating cute food hampers could be an excellent idea. Again make sure it’s handed over by an adult to avoid little hands helping themselves in the school yard.

Something personalized

From a shopper’s tote bag to a cute teddy bear, something personalized could be a wonderful gift for any child’s teacher this year. These days anything can be personalized, so it doesn’t have to cost more than a few dollars. For example, a key ring that state’s “Best Teacher” and their name would be an excellent idea and won’t cost that much.

An inspirational gift

Inspiring quotes in the form of prints or postcards are a big trend at the moment and could be a thoughtful gift for any teacher. Just finding a nice postcard with some lovely words online and framing it will create a unique gift.

Accessories

Style is a very personal thing, but knowing a child’s class teacher could give anyone a little insight into what they may like. A patterned scarf or a piece of jewelry picked out by the child would be an excellent gift choice. Not everyone will have confidence in buying this type of gift so it could be a little different to anyone else’s.

Good luck in choosing the perfect gift.
