My daughter started preschool this year, and I need to get a gift for her teacher. I don't have alot of extra money to spend, but I don't want to get her something cheap or cheesy. I'm sure she'll probably get a million candles and bottles of lotion, so I'd like to do something a little different. Any ideas? She's a great teacher and my daughter just loves her, so I'd like to do something special!
Thank you all for your suggestions! I wound up getting her an ornament and making her some cookies and putting them in a cute little Christmas bucket from the dollar store. She loved it! She was very excited when she found out that the cookies were actually for her and not for the class. Great ideas, ladies!
Teachers love gift cards, but if funds are low then CHOCOLATE!!! I have a great recipe for Chocolate Bark (kinda looks like peanut brittle, but much easier to make). Put it in a pretty container/tin. You almost never go wrong with Chocolate!!!
Merry Christmas!
You could write a card or letter on behalf of your daughter listing out the top reasons she loves her as her teacher.... Kids say the darnest things! And give her a christmas ornament (assuming she celebrates Christmas?)... Your daughter could make it... In fact, one thought that just popped into my head is an ornament she decorates with paint, glue, beads and glitter, with the message on the back saying "Miss X is my favorite teacher because she makes my day all sparkly"... and that could coincide with your top reasons on the card.
Stop by Michael's crafts and see what kind of ornament decoration kits or supplies they have.
