It takes a special person to be a teacher. Let’s be honest – I could never do it!! I LOVE kids, but I really only LOVE my kids enough to deal with them for 8 hours a day!! And imagine having 20+ of them for that amount of time. I mean really – teachers are saints! They love, educate, nurture, and take care of your kids for an entire 10 months! Wow!! They deserve to be spoiled during the Holidays. I typically give the usual gift card, bottle of wine and baked goods but this year I am trying to get a little more creative and get them things that they will use for an entire year, along with probably the bottle of wine still. I mean, we all need it! lol!
Depending on your budget for your child’s teacher, a few of these items may be a little bit of a splurge. Such as the Polaroid Camera. That being said – I think it’s a great way to give the teacher a little bit of a creative outlet while doing their job. Whether they use it as photos for reward wall, capture fun activities they do in class to send home to the parents, etc. It allows them to have the opportunity to do so! Super fun, and thoughtful!
The EO diffuser I thought would be a great idea to keep at their desk or during quiet time to keep the room smelling fresh and help keep the kids alert safely. They could diffuse theives/on guard or peppermint also, during cold and flu season!
The water bottle is a fun and pretty way to keep them hydrated and the rest of the items are pretty things for them to keep on their desk. They may have similar options already, but sometimes it is nice to be able to change things up, or have a prettier version of something they may already use daily!!
Hope you guys enjoy this gift guide! If you are a teacher and have any other ideas for parents – please leave in the comments below!
