Teacher/Caregiver Gifts

S Since there are only 6 kids in her class it is a bit different, and they do not do school wide gifts (we are at a center not a home based day care). But we are collecting 30 per child and giving them a card with either as either an amazon gift card or a visa gift card. Before we were approached with the idea of a class gift we were going to get each teacher (She has 2) a gift card to Starbucks and a nice travel mug.

I gave DD's Kindergarten teacher a bottle of Patron and a bag of limes.

She loved it.

You are awesome!

Last year I was given a bottle of wine and was quite happy with it. As a teacher, I prefer gift cards or something for the classroom if I had a say. And no I don't expect a gift. But if I had a choice, I would love me some Ticonderoga sharpened pencils

Before LBB was old enough to "help" we did things like candles, plants, coffee gift cards with mugs, Jamba Juice gift cards with mason jar tumblers, things like that.

Last year I started having him make his gifts for his teachers, so his immediate teachers got decorated glass jars filled with Hershey kisses and target gift cards. He made bottles of chocolate raspberry sauce for the rest of the center. This year his immediate teacher will get a framed crayon initial with target gift card and he'll make chocolate orange peels for the rest of the teachers.

For BH, who has destroyed outfits of his in home provider and her assistant, I'm going to make them cookie/cocoa kits and give them each visa gift cards (for clothes shopping!)

I give caregivers cash.

I've always wanted wine or liquor. I always get a bunch of plants (which my H keeps alive!) and coffee mugs. I had enough where I didn't have to wash my tea mugs for over a week!

Gift cards are great, though. The spa one I got once was amazing!
