Personalized Teacher Gifts
Who doesn’t like receiving something with their name on it?! Or is that just a guilty pleasure of ours? Either way, you can’t tell us that your children(s)’ teacher(s) wouldn’t love receiving personalized notecards or even a personalized pen.
Cheap Teacher Gifts
Let’s clarify something here – cheap does not mean unwanted. But to eliminate any misconceptions, we’re going to use the word inexpensive instead of cheap. Now that we’ve cleared that up, let’s get to the good stuff.
- You can never go wrong with a thoughtful handwritten thank you note. Have your student(s) express appreciation to their teacher(s) with a few kind words or even a poem.
- You know what else is sure to please? A candy bar. Tell us who wouldn’t love receiving a good ol’ piece of chocolate?! Not only is this a budget-friendly option, it’s also super easy; eliminating any worries of online ordering, wondering if the gift will arrive on time for the last day of school. Instead, you can quickly grab a candy bar from the grocery or convenience store. Heck, even the gas station offers them!
- Another inexpensive gift option is hand soap, which is especially useful for the classroom.
- Tip: For an added discount towards the purchase, be on the lookout for sales and coupons. Since soap doesn’t go bad, you can always buy hand soap in advance if you find a great deal.
- Do you have a flower garden, or do you know someone who does? A fresh bouquet of flowers is always a sweet surprise for any teacher.
- Tip: Have an old vase laying around? If not and you have to purchase one, consider checking on the shelves at your local thrift shop.
Whichever gift you choose for your student(s)’ teacher(s), remember to keep it simple and from the heart. What are your go-to teacher gifts? Share your favorites in the comments.
