Buying gifts for those people we know really well can be hard. But buying for teachers is extra tricky. I wanted to share some teacher appreciation gifts or holiday/birthday gifts today that were recommended to me by some great teachers!

Teacher Appreciation Gifts

If you ask me – there is no one in your kids lives that deserves a gift more. To me if I trust you enough to teach and care for my children all day, then you are pretty darn important to me.

Over the years I have tried to come up with unique and special gifts for my kids teachers – our school is small, so that means with 4 kids they will have kids from my house over and over, and I have to continue to be creative.

This guide contains unique options, but also ideas that they will love and use.

I tried to include a wide price range pending what you are looking to spend, and as always with teachers I think adding a gift card to any of these fun picks is always appreciated! And don’t forget to have your child write a note (or sign their name if they’re too young!) to their teacher. I have heard from countless teachers, that they really treasure this personal touch.

  1. I would never recommend lotions or any scented body products as gifts for anyone unless they ask for them. So many lotions can have ingredients that can cause all types of allergic reactions or even cause painful eczema outbreaks. As someone who is prone to eczema outbreaks from most soaps and lotions these types of gifts either get returned, regifted or set out for community use.
