awsome teacher

It’s Teacher Appreciation Week and we hope you have had the kids tell their teacher thanks for all the work they do.  As many know teachers often work hours long after the “time to go home bell” rings for the day.  Although we are homeschoolers, I have many friends that are teachers and they tell me that these are their top gifts or little thank you’s that they have enjoyed most over the year:

  • Gift card to their favorite restaurant
  • iTunes gift cards
  • Parents that offer to come and help a the end of the year (inventory books, clean up, host activities)
  • Functional gifts like cool tote bags, eco-friendly cups, or things that reflect what they love to do like cook books for a teacher that loves cooking or a book on hiking for the out doors lover.

You don’t have to be really crafty to get a great gift!  Check out these great ideas:  They are simple but really nice.

If you have some extra time, you might want to ask your child’s co-teachers what their interests are if you don’t know.  Often just showing your appreciation through making a meaningful gesture like thanking them is just as wonderful as a gift!
