Being a teacher isn’t easy these days. Teaching in the midst of a pandemic & doing things they were never trained to do is sure to be a struggle. They are teaching students from home and at school, while keeping up with the daily pressures, of student success, lesson plans, & technical issues that are bound to arise. Teachers have been dealt a poor hand and they are conquering every obstacle with grace. They deserve the world and so much more. 

Teachers are so grateful for the gifts they receive each year. It makes them feel appreciated & loved. There are about 4 times during the year when teachers are showered with gifts and praise. Christmas, Valentine’s Day, Teacher Appreciating Week & the End of the Year are the times when teachers receive gifts they love and sometimes gifts they are less thrilled about.  Now, let’s talk about those gifts… Hmmm, how can I put this nicely… teachers don’t want any more mugs or cheap jewelry. If you are in a position to purchase a gift, then why not make it something that your child’s teacher really wants?

Gift Cards, Gift Cards, Gift Cards! 

A gift card to their favorite restaurant, store, or a visa gift card that will allow the teacher to pick out their own gifts are all great ideas. You CAN NOT go wrong with a gift card! Did you know that you can purchase TONS of gift cards on Amazon? They can be emailed right to your child’s teacher.
