Teachers are amazing! Yes, I was a teacher for over 10 years and yes, I have gotten every.single. gift. imaginable (the macaroni necklaces are my favorite). If I could give my kid’s teachers a million dollars each, I would! But let’s be honest… I like to gift our teacher’s small things throughout the year. This can include a notepad, a smoothie, lunch on a crazy day, or just flowers from the grocery store. So for Teacher Appreciation Week, I like to do a few small gifts throughout the week as well.
I love getting plants or flowers, so I kept that idea for this year’s teachers as well. I found these gorgeous plants and decided to make a little gift tag for each of their teachers. Click here to download your own.
If you already have an idea but just need some sweet notes to attach to your gift, you can download these bright circle tags, just click here. All you need is a jar or bucket and THESE flair pens. Trust me, your teacher will love it!
And don’t forget about those awesome specials teachers! Music, PE, STEM, Art teachers and Librarians are so important to your child’s education. Don’t forget to gift them a little something special. It will truly make their day!
These specials teachers tags are free to download, just click here.
If you need something quick, then on your next run to Target you can pick. up one of these! As a teacher, I feel like I would love every single one of these items. Some are small and affordable, others are higher-priced items. But keep in mind, your wife, sister, or coworker might still appreciate this and you can go in with others to give a larger-priced gift.
1. Eye Shadow Palette This palette is super affordable and a great little gift for every skin tone.
2. Apple Watch Ok I know this is a pricey one but you guys… they deserve it! This would be a great one to gift from the entire class, you can ask all the parents for a donation and go from there. I will tell you this watch kept me on time for all the things. It is so convenient in the classroom for setting timers, quick checking emails, etc.
3. Air Pod Case This is a pretty floral case with a key ring so they can hook it on tho their backpack or purse and never lose their air pods.
4. Ember Mug – I’m obsessed with this gift! Every teacher knows how quick things move in the classroom and when that happens your coffee gets cold. Am I right? So this mug will keep your coffee warm and at the perfect temperature. Amazing right?
5. Bath Bombs – Who doesn’t love a good bath bomb? After a long day of teaching and recess duty and all. the. things. a warm bath sounds amazing!
6. Essie Nail Polish – This limited edition gift set of sparkly polish and perfect for the holidays!
7. 12 Days of Face Mask – Give your teacher a chance to relax and recharge over the holiday break with some face masks that will make their skin GLOW!
8. Cricut – You guys, every teacher has used or “bought” stuff you can make with a Cricut. This little guy is a mini device that would be perfect for all their classroom inspiration.
9. Instax – Students love seeing their photos in the classroom. This camera makes it super simple to capture moments and print them effortlessly!
10. Digital Photo Frame – I love the idea of displaying kid’s work in a digital frame. They can change out the photos by season/theme and it’s super easy to use.
11. Letterboard – We all love a good quote right? This one is super cute to display student of the month or other awards their students have received as well!
12. Bottle with Handle– The handle is the key! When the teacher’s hands are full, the water bottle with a handle will not be dropped! Then they can use their cricut to vinyl their name on the side.
13. Diffuser – Peace and Calming on a Friday morning is a must! This diffuser is beautiful to display and also super affordable.
14. Flair Pens – I mean, we all know the love I have for Flairs, but this pretty set has a million pretty colors and your teacher will be sure to love it!
15. Priority Planner– Keep your teacher on track with this priority planner. The planner helps keep your goals insight, which is great for when you have your annual observation and you want to make sure to hit your goals and hit all your standards.
