What are you getting your LO's teacher(s) for Christmas this year? I'm thinking of just making my life easy and grabbing two gift cards to our local coffee shop, since I see them drinking drinks from there quite often. Unless I come up with something better in the next couple of weeks!
-
I'm a teacher and that gift sounds amazing! I love when I get gift cards to a local coffee shop.
-
Last year we did a nice insulated tumbler with gift cards to Starbucks and Target inside, along with some small chocolates to fill the tumbler and I think we'll do the same again this year! I cash in cc points for the gift cards so it makes it economical too!
-
I ordered these personalized tumblers on Etsy and I'm planning to get a Starbucks gift card or some chocolates from TJs to go with them. https://www.etsy.com/listing/254365532/personalized-teacher-tumbler-apple

I think I may do a body whipped butter with essential oils and some chocolate this year. I have 3 kids in daycare which means lots of teachers and while I absolutely think they are worth every penny it adds up!
In the past I have done gift cards, and hand cream and lip balm from Kiehl's that the teachers seemed to like.
-
Since I know lots of people do coffee type things, I give these water tumblers and fill them with candy and a gift card somewhere. I used to work for the company that distributes them so I bought a bunch of them super cheap. My only concern is that now DS2 has some of the same teachers that DS1 had so don't necessarily want to repeat!
-
I usually do gift cards for daycare teachers.
As a middle school teacher, I'll share some of my favorites from the past:
Kiel's lip balm
Coffee gift cards
Target gift cards
Personalized stationary
Cashmere scarf (this was unique)
Kid written notes
Coffee mugsI don't like getting:
Chocolate (sooo much)
Bath and body works (gross smelling) -
@Canoli: I'm stealing your body butter idea- the winter season is so drying for the skin.
$20/$25 Amex GC + Almond Thins cookies + body butter
-
@Canoli: do you make your own body butter? If so can you share the recipe?
-
gift card is always a hit! i'm going with the safe bet.
-
@Mamaof2: I've never made it before. I'm also thinking about doing a sugar scrub which seems easier. I use Young Living EO and I just went on Pinterest and searched for Young Living Body Butter and tons of recipes came up.
-
I bought three kindergarten teachers a small gift from L'Occitane - mini handcream and lip balm ($29). Looks nice and smells great.
-
I am going to get moleskin notebooks, pens and a coffee card for my kids teachers!
-
@Bao: Do it! Gift certificates & notes/cards/letters are always my favorite gifts. As a teacher, you tend to amass SO MUCH STUFF for your classroom & as gifts from students that a lot of it gets given away...it's lovely, but just too much. That sounds like a thoughtful and perfect gift.
-
@Pancakes: I'm totally ordering these! Thanks for the ideas ladies, maybe I'll finally have my ____ together before December 22nd this year
-
Everybody is different but personally I wouldn't want body products - I only use specific varieties of certain ones. My bathroom cabinet is full of creams and lotions and scrubs I've been given that I've never used. We do gift cards (Starbucks this year) and homemade cookies.
-
@Bao: I'm a teacher and would LOVE gift cards for coffee shops.
-
Growing up, We loved all the Starbucks cards my mom would get as a hs teacher. She would load up our stockings with all of them because she didn't like going there
-
Definitely a gift card of some sort and some small little side gift. My husband wants to do amazon since it's so universal and easy. I want to do something like a local coffee shop near the school or maybe something fun like a Sephora gift card.
-
@Bao: we are doing homemade vanilla extract bottles. (This is my gift for EVERYONE this year!)
-
I'm thinking a coffee shop gc and hand lotion.
-
I have 6 teachers so I'm getting them slipper socks, insulated tumblers and a gift card.
-
I've never met a teacher that doesn't love a gift card, so that's the route I'm going.
