Christmas is a great time to show your child's teacher how much you
appreciate all the effort he or she gives the class every day.
A thoughtful gift expresses your thanks for the teacher's patient instruction, encouraging words and time spent outside of work grading papers and tests.
While it can be tough to find just the right present, here are a few practical ideas that are sure to be a hit.

While it can be tough to find just the right present, here are a few practical ideas that are sure to be a hit.
Edible Gifts
A box of tasty, good quality chocolates, a package of cookies from the
local bakery or a gift basket filled with treats make wonderful gifts. Your
child's teacher can eat them right away, savor one a day for a few weeks or
share them with family at the holiday get-together.
Gift Cards
Most teachers love to get gift cards for coffee, goodies or lunch. They
can choose the specific item they most prefer, and if they get several cards,
they can use them throughout the year. The local Starbucks, Cold Stone
Creamery, Applebee's, Panera or similar establishments are all great sources
for gift cards.
Vouchers or Gift
Certificates
Give the teacher a voucher or gift certificate for a fun activity she
can enjoy with her family. If the family has younger kids, a voucher to a zoo
or aquarium might be appreciated. If the teacher likes a little adventure, then
a voucher or gift certificate for zip lining or a rock climbing wall could be
the perfect gift
Classroom Items
Teachers frequently spend their own money to decorate the classroom and
provide supplies to make it a welcoming, nurturing environment for young
learners. The price of colorful dry-erase markers, cheerful Post-it notes,
stickers, books for the classroom library, tissues and hand sanitizer can add
up over time. Ask for a classroom wish list and purchase a few items off the
list. If you'd like to give a larger, more costly item for the classroom,
recruit the other classroom families to chip in for a group gift.
Consult your child's teacher for ideas, or make a few suggestions. Perhaps the classroom could use an entire set of the hottest new book series or standing desk converters so students can reap benefits like improved physical and mental well-being and decreased sedentary habits.

This year, rather than giving your child's teacher another mug or apple
ornament, try giving a practical gift that can be put to good use.
